Ham and Cheese Savory Pop-Tarts
These Ham and Cheese Savory Pop-Tarts are a delightful twist on a classic treat, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a quick snack. The golden crust bakes to perfection in just 20 minutes, offering a crisp exterior that contrasts beautifully with the gooey, savory center.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
- 5 slices cooked Ham
- Puff Pastry
- Egg wash*
Instructions
- Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface until ¼ - ½ inch thick.
- With a pizza cutter or knife cut your pastry to 3inch x 4inch rectangles. You will need 2 for each Pop-Tart.
- On one piece of pastry, lay on some ham and sprinkle over grated cheese. Take care not to overfill or the filling will come out.
- Egg wash the edges of the pastry around the filling, lay on the top layer and seal the 2 pieces together with a fork.
- Egg wash the top of the Pop-Tart, this will give it a lovely golden color.
- Prick the top with a fork to release steam while baking.
- Bake at 400oF (200oC) for 20-23 minutes or until golden brown.
- Enjoy warm from the oven.
Notes
You can freeze the Pop-Tarts raw and then bake from frozen when needed. Egg wash: whisk up an egg yolk with 4 tablespoons of milk and brush over pastry.
