Ingredients

• 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
• 1 cup ham, diced
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 3 units large eggs
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to package instructions, and roll each sheet out slightly to ensure they are large enough to fold over the filling.

Step 3

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 4

Place one puff pastry sheet on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the diced ham evenly over the center, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Step 5

Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the ham, ensuring an even layer.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the ham and cheese filling, making sure it doesn’t spill over the edges.

Step 7

If desired, sprinkle the top with chopped parsley for an additional burst of flavor and color.

Step 8

Carefully place the second puff pastry sheet over the filling. Press the edges together to seal, then use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative effect.

Step 9

Make a few small slits on the top puff pastry sheet using a sharp knife to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your Ham and Cheese Stuff N Puff with a side salad or fruit for a complete meal.
