Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1/2 cup finely chopped cooked ham
- 1/2 cup grated Gruyère cheese
- 1/4 cup crème fraîche or heavy cream
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out puff pastry sheet to a 12-inch square. Cut into 16 (3-inch) squares.
- In a small bowl, mix ham, Gruyère, crème fraîche, pepper, and salt.
- Place a heaping teaspoon of the ham mixture in the center of each pastry square. Brush edges with beaten egg.
- Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, pressing edges to seal. Place on prepared baking sheet.
- Brush tops with remaining egg wash. Cut a small slit in the top of each for steam to escape.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Serve warm.
Tips
- For a vegetarian version, substitute ham with sautéed mushrooms or spinach.
- These can be assembled ahead and refrigerated; bake just before serving.
- Serve with a dollop of Dijon mustard for dipping.
