Ham and Cheese Sticks
Ingredients:
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
6 slices deli ham
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the pastry by rolling out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface.
Layer ham and cheese: Arrange the ham slices evenly over the puff pastry, then scatter the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Fold & cut: Gently fold the pastry in half and press the edges to seal. Slice into 1-inch wide strips.
Twist & bake: Twist each strip and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with the beaten egg, and sprinkle sesame seeds if using.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
