About this recipe
Ham and cheese crescents are a quick snack made with puff pastry, egg, oregano, and a savory filling. The ham and cheese create a classic salty filling, while the oregano adds a simple herbal aroma. Once baked, the puff pastry turns golden and crisp, so the crescents are best served after cooling briefly. Brushing them with egg helps create a more appetizing color. These puff pastry crescents work well for a gathering, dinner, or a warm snack.
Ingredients
275 g chilled puff pastry, a sheet about 25 × 40 cm
80 g ham
80 g cheese
1 egg
a pinch of oregano
Steps
Preheat the oven to 200°C with top and bottom heat. Divide the pastry sheet into four equal rectangles, then cut each diagonally to make eight triangles.
Place the ham, cheese, and a little oregano on the wider end of each triangle, leaving a clear border.
Roll up the crescents from the wider end toward the tip, place them seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and brush with beaten egg.
Bake for about 18–22 minutes, until the crescents are puffed and golden underneath as well. If the rolled pastry remains damp and pale, bake longer while watching the color of the tops.
