Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 6 oz cheddar cheese slices
- 8 oz ham
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F/190 degrees C. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
- Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheet and lay on a lightly floured surface.
- Evenly cover the puff pastry with the cheese slices and top with the ham.
- Firmly roll up the puff pastry, making sure it’s firmly holding together as you roll. When it’s rolled up, you may need to shape it slightly so it’s a symmetrical log shape.
- Chill for 10 minutes. Remove from the fridge and using a sharp knife, cut into 12 equal parts. Place on a baking tray, evenly spaced apart. Brush with the melted butter.
- Bake between 20 - 25 minutes, until golden and puffed up. Remove from oven and serve warm.
