Crispy Ham And Cheese Puff Pastry Stacks
Crispy Ham and Cheese Puff Pastry Stacks are golden, cheesy, savory pastries made from flaky puff pastry, deli ham, and a blend of mozzarella and cheddar. Easy to assemble, bake, and devour—these are perfect as a snack, light lunch, or appetizer.
For the Puff Pastry Stacks:
- 2 sheets puff pastry thawed if frozen
- 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 8 slices deli ham thinly sliced or chopped
- 1 egg for egg wash
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard optional
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Garnish:
- Fresh chopped parsley
- Extra shredded cheese for topping
- Cracked black pepper
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet. Lightly roll out both puff pastry sheets to smooth creases.
Spread Dijon mustard on one sheet (optional), then layer with mozzarella, cheddar, and ham. Season with garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Place the second sheet on top and press gently. Cut into 3"x3" squares. Stack two squares together, adding cheese between layers if desired.
Brush tops with egg wash, sprinkle more cheese and pepper. Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden and puffed.
Cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
