  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll out the puff pastry to form a rectangle 1/2 cm thick.
  • Cut the rectangle into 8 squares.
  • In a saucepan, mix the cherries with the liqueur, cinnamon, and jam. Cook until the mixture begins to boil. Remove from heat and take out the vanilla pod.
  • Fill each square of puff pastry with 2-3 tablespoons of cherry filling and close to form a triangle. To seal the puff pastry well, use a little of the beaten egg and press with your fingers.
  • Place the pastries on a greased baking sheet and brush with a little beaten egg to ensure they brown nicely.
  • Bake the pastries for 15 minutes or until the puff pastry is lightly golden. Remove from the oven.
