Roll the puff pastry, ham, and cheese

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Puff Pastry

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle. If it’s already pre-rolled, just lay it flat.

2. Layer the Ham & Cheese

  • (Optional) Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard over the pastry for a tangy kick.
  • Evenly layer the ham slices on top of the pastry, covering the surface.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the ham, making sure to distribute it evenly.
  • (Optional) Add a pinch of black pepper for a hint of spice.

3. Roll & Slice

  • Carefully roll the pastry from one long side to the other, creating a tight log.
  • Slice the roll into 1-inch thick pieces and place them on the baking sheet, cut-side up.

4. Brush with Egg Wash & Bake

  • Brush each roll with beaten egg for a shiny, golden crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the rolls are puffed up and golden brown.

5. Serve & Enjoy!

  • Let them cool slightly before serving.
  • Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce (honey mustard, marinara, or a garlic aioli work great!).

Tips & Variations:

Cheese Options: Try Gruyère, Swiss, or a mix of cheeses for a gourmet touch.
Add a Twist: Add caramelized onions, spinach, or a sprinkle of herbs for extra flavor.
Make Ahead: Assemble the rolls and freeze them before baking. Bake straight from the freezer—just add 3-5 extra minutes to the baking time.
