18 spears Prime Time Asparagus, trimmed
1 sheet of puff pastry
6 slices ham
6 slices cheese (Cheddar, Gouda, or mozzarella)
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp poppy seeds
1 tsp sesame seeds
Fresh basil (optional)
Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 12–15 mins
Servings: 6
1 Preheat oven to 400° F.
2 On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a ¼" thick rectangle. Cut into 6 equally sized squares.
3 On each square, lay down a slice of ham diagonally, then 3 asparagus spears, and top with a slice of cheese.
4 Bring one corner of the puff pastry over and brush the tip of it with a beaten egg, then fold the opposite corner, so it overlaps. Press down to seal.
5 Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet 2" apart, brush the top of the pastries with a beaten egg, and sprinkle with poppy and sesame seeds.
6 Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown.
7 Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired. Best served warm. Enjoy!
