Baked ham and cheese pastry
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. You can prepare and freeze the dough in advance, making the baking process even faster. You can shape the pastries into circles, squares, or rectangles. If desired, add a slice of tomato to the pastry. Enjoy them right away while the cheese is still stretchy with every bite, or after they've cooled down. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
