Preparation method

Ingredients overview

600 g puff pastry
200 g prosciutto crudo
100 g Emmental slices
100 g sun-dried tomato pesto
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 egg
white sesame for sprinkling neighborhoods

Divide the puff pastry into 2 equally sized parts and roll out. Cut each part into squares. From 300 g of dough, you will get 4x 7 squares. The squares go from largest to smallest so that the tree can be layered. On each part, except the last one, place a piece of prosciutto, cheese, and pesto. Stack two squares perpendicularly on top of each other and secure with a skewer.

Brush the tree with beaten egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. After cooling, remove the skewer and sprinkle with fresh thyme.
