Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 large egg (plus 1 for brushing)
- ¼ cup cold milk
- 4 slices turkey bacon, cooked and diced
- 4 slices chicken ham, diced
- ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or preferred variety)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional herbs: chives, parsley, or others for extra flavor
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine flour and a pinch of salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 1 beaten egg and milk gradually, mixing until dough forms. Avoid overworking.
- Form dough into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Cook turkey bacon until crisp, dice along with chicken ham. Scramble eggs lightly with salt, pepper, and herbs. Allow to cool.
- Roll dough on a floured surface into a 1/8-inch thick rectangle. Cut into squares or rectangles.
- Spoon filling onto half of the dough pieces, leaving a border. Brush edges with beaten egg.
- Place remaining dough pieces on top, pressing edges with a fork to seal. Poke small holes on top.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush tops with egg wash.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Customize fillings with vegetables, different cheeses, or herbs.
Can be frozen before or after baking.
Ensure edges are sealed to prevent leaks.
