Ingredients
  

  • 1 puff pastry sheet defrosted according to package instructions
  • 9.9 oz ham thinly sliced any preferred variety
  • 3.3 oz sharp cheddar cheese thinly sliced can substitute with any firm cheese
  • 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard adds tang and flavor to the filling
  • 1 teaspoon Everything Bagel Seasoning for extra seasoning and crunch
Egg Wash:
  • 1 large egg for brushing on the pastries
  • 1 teaspoon water to mix with the egg for the wash

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the defrosted puff pastry into a 12×12-inch square. Cut it into 11 equal squares, each approximately 4×4 inches.
  2. Spread a small amount of Dijon mustard in the center of each square.
  3. Place a slice of ham diagonally on each square. Top it with half a slice of sharp cheddar.
  4. Fold one corner of the puff pastry over the filling, then fold the opposite corner, slightly stretching the dough to tuck it underneath. Pinch to seal if necessary.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together. Brush the egg wash onto the folded pastries.
  6. Sprinkle Everything Bagel Seasoning over the top of each pastry.
  7. Place the pastries onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
  8. Allow the pastries to cool for a few minutes before serving.
