Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to smooth it out.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon (if using), and a pinch of salt.
Sprinkle a generous layer of the sugar mixture evenly over the puff pastry sheet, pressing it down gently with the rolling pin.
Starting from one edge, carefully roll the pastry inward until you reach the middle. Repeat from the other edge, so both rolls meet at the center.
With the rolled pastry in the shape of a heart, slice it into 1/2-inch thick slices.
Place the palmier slices on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each to allow for expansion during baking.
Bake the Palmiers for 12-15 minutes or until they turn golden brown and caramelized.
Let the Palmiers cool on a wire rack before serving.
