• 1 tbsp water1 tbsp water

Instructions

• Preheat to 400F.
• Line your baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper.
• Unfold your first pastry sheet on the silpat.
• Spread out your guava slices on the pastry sheet. You can go pretty close to the edges.
• Unfold your second pastry sheet and place on top of the guava slices
• Cut into 6-9 rectangular pastries. You do not need to separate them before baking. Cut 3-4 large slits in each of your pastries. 
• Beat your egg and water. Brush the pastries with the egg wash. Bake 25-35 minutes until golden brown. The guava filling gets insanely hot, so be careful and let them cool before tasting.
