PRESENTATION

Sfoglie alle olive con cubetti di frittata is just such a tasty way to give a Southern Italian classic a fresh twist. I mean, imagine moist, oven-baked olive frittata bites nestled on crispy olive puff pastry sheets. So here's the thing: this method, inspired by places like Campania and Calabria, makes the dish lighter by baking instead of frying. Which is great.

Paired with puff pastry appetizers, these tender bites are just perfect for casual gatherings or parties when you want something different. People really, really adore these Italian finger foods because they're easy to enjoy—just grab and eat. The savory puff pastry, with its subtle briny olive taste, really sets these apart from other golden baked treats. Southern Italians? They have a knack for making simple ingredients into something super tasty, and the provola cheese melts beautifully into the eggs, keeping each cube tender and slightly creamy.

They're perfect as quick party snacks or make-ahead appetizers for any event. And listen, they're the kind of treats that disappear fast. You don't even need to explain what's in them. For anyone interested in easy Italian recipes or those looking for a fun new dish for their next picnic, these crispy squares on olive pastry are a fantastic choice. Pretty simple and golden. Plus, it's a creative twist on traditional Italian antipasti, and they're sure to be a hit with everyone.

Preparation

How to prepare Olive puffs with frittata cubes

To make the olive puffs with frittata cubes, start with the preparation of the frittata: in a bowl, place the whole eggs, beat them with a whisk 1, add salt, pepper 2, and season with chopped parsley 3

and then finally add the cheeses: grated parmesan 4 and diced scamorza 5. Moisten and wring out a sheet of parchment paper and line a baking dish measuring 6x8 inches 6.

Pour the mixture into the pan 7 and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and turn it out onto a cutting board 8. Now cut the frittata into strips about half an inch wide 9

and from these, cut small cubes about 1/2 inch 10. With the help of kitchen tongs, place the frittata cubes on the puffs 11. Your olive puffs with frittata cubes are ready to be crunched! 12

Storage
