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.

Ingredients
  

For the Puff Pastry Stacks:

  • 2 sheets puff pastry thawed if frozen
  • 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

Instructions
 

  • 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.
