Puff pastry is a real lifesaver for many housewives. With this wonderful product you can prepare very tasty baked goods. Especially if you have some ham and cheese in the fridge. This filling will ennoble any dough, and if it is puff pastry, then there is no need to talk. The baked goods are aromatic and tasty. Shall we please our loved ones with puff pastries with ham and cheese?
Puff pastries with ham and cheese - general principles of preparation
You can make puff pastry yourself. The main ingredients are butter and flour. But not every housewife is attracted to repeated rolling out of layers, folding, and cooling. A good dough has at least 27 layers and will take at least 3 hours to prepare. Therefore, most often the semi-finished product is purchased in the store. Moreover, its price is affordable.
There are 2 types of puff pastry:
• yeast;
• yeast-free.
Products from the first one turn out fluffy, airy, somewhat reminiscent of rich pastries. Puff pastries made from yeast-free dough are not as voluminous, more dense, but no less tasty. Basically, you can use any dough you like.
For the filling, ham and cheese are chopped, and other ingredients can be added. Most often these are greens, vegetables, eggs. If you don’t really like ham, then you can safely add it to puff pastries. In combination with dough, cheese and other ingredients, the product will become much tastier. The same goes for cheese; in puff pastries, even ordinary processed cheese becomes luxurious. But never use products of questionable freshness.
Puff pastries are baked in the oven. The blanks can be greased with egg, sprinkled with seeds, sesame or cumin. Ready-made baked goods can be consumed hot or cold.

You can use any sausage: smoked or boiled, in both cases it turns out delicious. I make puff pastries for kids with boiled sausage, but for adults I put smoked sausage and choose a spicier cheese, like cheddar, although any hard cheese will do.
Cut the smoked sausage into slices. Cut the boiled sausage into cubes.
Take the puff pastry sheet out of the freezer in advance to defrost. Cut the sheet of dough into 8 rectangles. Prick each piece with a fork on one side, as shown in the photo.
On the other side, on each rectangle we will make three cuts with a knife.
Place the sausage as shown in the photo.
Grate the hard cheese on a medium grater. Sprinkle sausage with cheese.
Cover the sausage and cheese filling with the second half of the dough. Using a fork, we fasten the edges of our puff pastries.
In a bowl, beat the egg with 1 tsp. water. Brush the top of each puff pastry with egg using a silicone brush.
If desired, you can sprinkle the tops of the puffs with sesame seeds. Place the puff pastries with sausage and cheese in an oven preheated to 180 degrees C for 20 minutes.
Remove the finished puff pastries from the oven and let them cool for 2-5 minutes.
Serve puff pastries with sausage and cheese for tea or coffee. In my family they go well with milk.
Buns made from puff pastry without yeast. Eastern sweetness
The secret of this recipe is the combination of nut-honey filling and crispy dough. Everything is simple, but in the end the dish resembles an exotic oriental sweet.
Ingredients:
- Try to chop the nuts finely and fry them a little. If you use walnuts, it is better not to fry them - they will be bitter. Just chop it.
- While the nuts are hot, mix them with honey and sugar. Add cinnamon. Mix everything well and let it brew a little so that the nuts are saturated with the aroma of cinnamon and honey.
- To make it easier to work with, divide the dough into several parts. Roll out each part well. The thickness should not be more than 5 mm.
- Before adding the filling, brush each layer with melted butter.
- Place the filling and distribute evenly over the dough.
- Here's attention! The layers of dough can be placed one on top of the other to form a pie or cakes if the pie is cut into pieces before baking. But you can roll the rolls. Each housewife decides for herself, taking into account her mood and family preferences.
- Roll up the roll. Brush the top of the roll with whipped yolk.
- Bake the rolls at 250 degrees for 20 minutes.
The puff pastry, nuts and honey will make the roll look like baklava. But a different dough is used to make baklava.

Ham buns are a versatile snack. There are dozens of recipes for making them from different types of dough. You can even use ready-made buns - cut them in half, fill them with filling to taste and bake them in the oven. Cooking does not require any exotic ingredients or special skills. Absolutely anyone can cope with this recipe, even a novice cook.
Ingredients :
- 2 eggs;
- 160 ml milk;
- 120 ml sour cream;
- 550 grams of flour;
- 0.5 teaspoons of salt;
- 1.5 tbsp. spoons of sugar;
- 100 grams of ham;
- 10 green onions;
- 50 grams of butter;
- 1.5 teaspoons of dry yeast;
- 2 tbsp. spoons of sesame seeds.
Step-by-step recipe for ham buns
Step 1:
Dissolve yeast and half a tablespoon of sugar in heated milk, leave aside for ten minutes. Step 2:
In another container, beat one egg with the remaining sugar and salt.
Step 3:
Add the melted butter to the resulting sugar-egg mixture and stir.
Step 4:
Add sour cream, mix again, combine both mixtures.
Step 5:
Finely chop the ham, chop the onion, add to the dough and mix.
Step 6:
Add flour in small portions, stirring constantly, knead into a soft dough. Cover it with a cloth and set aside for an hour in a cool, draft-free place.
Step 7:
Transfer the dough to a board and cut into pieces according to the number of future buns, roll into small balls.
Step 8:
Grease the mold with oil, place the dough balls on it in a circle, cover with a towel and leave for twelve minutes so that they rise a little.

It is best to eat the buns fresh; after they have been left for a while and cooled down, they will lose their taste, especially the next day. If you still leave them for several days, then warm the buns a little in the microwave before eating, this will make them softer.
Useful tips
When working with puff pastry, you need to adhere to several important rules:
- The less the puff pastry is kneaded by hand and kept warm, the better;
- The butter and margarine used for mixing should be cold, but not frozen. Otherwise, the layers in the finished dough will tear;
- When preparing buns and pies from puff pastry, it is best to pierce them with a fork or toothpick in several places. This will allow the air in the dough to escape during baking and then there will be no bubbles;
- When brushing pastries with yolk, you do not need to grease the side walls with it. Otherwise, the baked goods will not be able to rise and will not be as fluffy;
- Puff pastry buns should be baked in an oven preheated to 220-250 degrees. But not higher.
Delicious puff pastries with ham and cheese will delight every guest and family member.

Homemade puff pastry
To prepare puff pastry, you need to use high-quality natural butter and the finest wheat flour. This ensures that the finished puff pastries will have a delicate, balanced taste and airy texture. The classic recipe involves kneading the dough for a long time and then folding it according to a special pattern.
The entire process may take several hours. The finished dough can be stored in the refrigerator for several days and used as needed. If you plan to store the dough longer, it should be wrapped in cling film and placed in the freezer.
To prepare the dough you need the following ingredients:
- premium wheat flour - 450 g;
- natural butter - 200 g;
- salt - 2 tsp;
- milk - 250 ml;
- eggs - 1 piece;
- fresh yeast - 25 g;
- sugar - 50 g.
Flour must be mixed with salt and then ground with 25 g of butter. The egg is lightly beaten, mixed with sugar, yeast and heated milk. The mixture should be left at room temperature for 10 minutes, and then added to the butter-flour mixture and kneaded thoroughly. To make the dough smooth and completely homogeneous, it must be kneaded for at least 15 minutes.
The dough is rolled out into a rectangular layer. The remaining butter is divided into 3 parts, one of them is spread on 1/3 of the rolled out dough. The edges should be left ungreased. The oil-free dough is folded in half, and then the greased part is covered with it.
Using a rolling pin, the edges of the folded dough are pinched, then the folded structure is rolled out again into a rectangle. The lubrication and folding procedure must be done again. Then the folded dough is wrapped in cling film and placed in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
The chilled dough is rolled out, brushed with the remaining oil and folded again. Then the workpiece is placed in the cold for 1 hour. The procedure of rolling and folding without oiling is repeated twice more, after which the workpiece is again placed in the cold.
It is important that before the final cutting of the puff pastry the dough is firm and well chilled, but not frozen.
