Puff Pastry Perfection

This recipe is perfection because it’s so incredibly yummy and EASY! It only has three main ingredients and requires very little preparation. This is a great recipe to entertain with, make for breakfast, or whip up for a quick dinner.

Ingredients:

• 1 puff pastry
• 8 slices of good quality deli ham
• 8 slices of cheese (cheddar or Swiss are my favorites)
• 1 tbsp of melted butter
• 1/2 tsp of poppy seeds

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the defrosted puff pastry on a greased cookie sheet. Slice each side of the puff pastry with a knife or pizza cutter to make slanted strips.

Layer the middle of the puff pastry with cheese and meat. Fold the strips over to form a braid on the top. Brush the top of the puff pastry with melted butter and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Allow the puff pastry to cool and then slice to serve.
