These delightful savory bites are perfect for any gathering or as a comforting snack.
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it into squares.
Keep the pastry cold for easier handling and better puffing.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, diced ham, and Dijon mustard.
Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavors.
Place a spoonful of the filling onto each pastry square and fold the edges to seal.
Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch and to ensure they are sealed.
Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
This step gives the pastries a beautiful golden sheen.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed.
Keep an eye on the pastries during the last few minutes to avoid over-browning.
Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
