How to Bake Your Pasty – The Proper Way

Whether you’re an oven traditionalist or an air fryer fan,
here’s how to get your pasty piping hot and proper tasty.

Quick Tips Before You Start

• Thaw it first if you can – it’ll bake quicker.
• Baking from frozen? No problem – just give it a bit more time.

Oven Method

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Remove all packaging
3. Place it on a baking tray (use parchment paper if you like less mess).
4. Bake for 20 – 30 minutes, or until it hits 165°F (74°C) in the center.
5. Not quite there yet? Pop it back in for a few more minutes.
6. Let it cool for a few minutes before tucking in – trust us, your tongue will thank you.

Air Fryer Method

1. Preheat the air fryer to 360°F (182°C).
2. Removepackaging and place the pasty in the basket or baking tray.
3. Cook until it reaches 165°F (74°C) inside – usually a bit quicker than the oven.
4. Need it crispier? Add a couple more minutes.
5. Let it sit a minute or two before you dig in – don’t be burning yer gob now!

Sauce & Sippin’ Suggestions

Sure, pasties are brilliant on their own – but if you’re feeling fancy:

• Brown sauce or ketchup – classic combo
• A bit of English mustard for some kick
• Chutney or even a cheeky cider gravy for the full Cornish experience

Drink pairing? A proper cuppa, or your favorite brew’ll do just fine.
