HAM PUFFS

These ham puffs are a great appetizer or even a tasty addition to a brunch menu. The Dijon mustard and onion give them a punch of flavor but not overpowering. Buttery, flaky crescent bread provides the base to a slightly puffy ham and cheese filling. A fantastic way to use leftover holiday ham. We were able to fill 24 mini muffin...

HAM AND CHEESE PUFFS



Ham and Cheese Puffs image

My family used to make these for special occasions, or random visitors! Basically a gougere! They can be baked and frozen then just brought out and thrown in a toaster oven when needed! Sometimes I like a stronger mustard taste so I double the dry mustard. I'm guessing at the amount of servings as I don't think I've ever made a single batch of this recipe - haha.

Time 30m

Yield 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup water
1/3 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup flour
5 eggs
1 1/2 cups edam cheese or 1 1/2 cups gruyere cheese, shredded
1 cup ham, chopped (can be leftover baked ham or deli ham)
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Combine water, butter, and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Add the flour all at once, stirring vigorously, until the batter leaves the sides of the pan and a ball of paste forms.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool for about a minute.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating vigorously after each one until the dough is smooth.
  • Stir in cheese, ham, and dry mustard.
  • Place heaping teaspoonfuls on a lightly greased baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until firm and golden.
  • IF FREEZING: Allow to cool completely and store in an airtight container between layers of wax paper.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful ingredients for the best results.
  • Pay attention to the dough: The key to a flaky ham puff is a well-made dough. Follow the recipe instructions carefully and handle the dough gently.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before rolling and baking helps to create flaky layers.
  • Don't overfill the puffs: Overfilling the puffs can make them soggy. Fill them just enough so that the filling is evenly distributed.
  • Bake the puffs until golden brown: The puffs are done baking when they are golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
