Ingredients

• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets, thawed
• 8 slices Sliced ham
• 8 slices Swiss cheese, sliced
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Water
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly dust your work surface with all-purpose flour. Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets to smoothen any creases.

Step 3

Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares, giving you 8 squares in total.

Step 4

Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard in the center of each puff pastry square.

Step 5

Place one slice of ham and one slice of Swiss cheese on top of the mustard in each square.

Step 6

Fold the opposite corners of each puff pastry square toward the center, overlapping them slightly to seal. Press lightly to stick the corners together.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash.

Step 8

Brush the top of each puff pastry with the egg wash to give a golden, shiny finish.

Step 9

Place the filled puff pastries on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each square to allow for puffing.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastries are golden and flaky.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature!
