Instructions

Place the puff pastry slices next to each other on a floured work surface, let them thaw.
Knead the marzipan and 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar.
Place the puff pastry slices on top of each other and roll them out into a rectangle (25 x 30 cm). Roll out the marzipan into a rectangle (23 x 29 cm) on a surface sprinkled with powdered sugar.
Heat the orange jam and stir until smooth. Set aside 1 teaspoon. Spread the puff pastry with the rest of the jam, cover with the marzipan plate, roll up from both long sides and cut into approx. 30 slices. Press a little flat, sprinkle with sugar and place on two baking sheets lined with baking paper.
Place an empty baking sheet on the bottom of the oven, otherwise the pig`s ears will turn dark very quickly from below.
Bake one after the other in a preheated oven at 200 ° C for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. After the cooking time, brush the ears with the jam you set aside!

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
