Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 20 slices Salami slices
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 1 tablespoon Flour (for dusting)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll out one puff pastry sheet to ensure it’s smooth and even.
Lay the first puff pastry sheet on the prepared baking sheet.
Layer the puff pastry sheet with 10 slices of salami, ensuring even coverage, and sprinkle half of the cheddar cheese evenly over the salami.
Place the remaining 10 slices of salami on top of the cheese and sprinkle the rest of the cheddar cheese over this layer.
Roll out the second puff pastry sheet slightly and place it on top of the layered salami and cheese. Press down gently to seal the layers together.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the top of the puff pastry with the egg wash using a pastry brush and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the layered pastry into 16 equal squares.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before separating the squares and serving.
