Ham & Cheese croissant top with chia seeds


This is a yummy, quick and easy snacks for the young and old. I am using pampas ready puff pastry to make these croissants. To give it a healthier crunch, I added some black organic chai seeds on top.


Ingredients

~ 5 slices of  round honey baked ham ( cut into half )
~ 5 slices of kraft single cheese ( cut into half )
~ 1 big piece of ready pampas puff pastry
~ Some chia seeds
~ 1 egg lightly beaten

Methods:



 
~ Preheat your oven to 230 degrees
~ Cut the puff pastry with a pizza cutter into triangle shapes
~ Place the ham and cheese on top of the pastry
~ Roll up the pastry together with the fillings.
~ You can brush some egg wash at the end tip to stick the roll together
~ Do a final egg wash on top of the pastry.
~ Top with chia seeds.
~ Bake in oven at 230 degrees for about 15 mins or  till pastry turn golden brown and crispy.
~ Serve warm

Special note:

~ Make sure the puff pastry is still cold when working on it.
~ Oven must be preheated first to get the nice crispy and golden brown look

Another variation that I have done:

Nutella croissants
