Cheese And Bacon Turnovers
These savoury wraps are super easy and yummy. Perfect for hosting, entertaining, or for breakfast and snacking.
Ingredients
- 320 g ready-rolled puff pastry
- 8 slices bacon (smoked or unsmoked, streaky, or lean back bacon)
- 140 g grated mature cheddar cheese, or edam, mozzarella
- 1 free-range egg
Optional:
- ketchup, tomato sauce, mustard (Dijon/German), caramelised onion chutney or brown sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/355F.
- Roll out the pastry and cut it into 8 same-sized squares.
- If using, add a small amount of your chosen sauce to the centre of each square and spread it using a butter knife.
- Add a slice of bacon – place it diagonally on the top of the pastry (fold it if too long).
- Top with grated cheese and fold opposite corners to create a wrap around the bacon and cheese. Press the corners together to ensure they won’t split during baking.
- Beat the egg and brush it over the top of the pastry. If you have some cheese left, add it on top.
- Place in the oven and bake for 18-23 minutes or until the pastry is golden and the bacon looks cooked through. Eat hot or cold on their own or with a condiment sauce of your choice.
Notes
Possible swaps (1:1 ratio unless stated otherwise):
- Shortcrust pastry or filo (phyllo) pastry.
- Ham, Parma ham, salami, thinly sliced sausage, kielbasa (smoked sausage) or chorizo.
- Blue cheese or brie.
