Print Pin Save
Servings: 16
Author: Recipe from my Blanco Oven Handbook

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry
  • 16 little pieces of prosciutto about 3 big slices
  • 4 tablespoon basil pesto sauce I used chunky basil dip
  • 2 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg yolk beaten (this is to glaze the pastry, I used a little milk instead so I didn't waste an egg)

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 160C(320F) fan-forced and line an oven tray with baking paper
  • Lay the pastry on the bench and cut it into 4 squares then cut each square into 4 triangles.
  • Spread each triangle with pesto.
  • Place a piece of prosciutto on top of each triangle.
  • Starting from the long side, roll each one up and pinch the ends together to form a crescent.
  • Lay them on the oven tray and brush with the egg or milk.
  • Sprinkle the parmesan over the top.
  • Bake the crescents for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden.
  • They can be served hot, at room temperature or can be frozen for up to 3 months after they have been cooked.
