Swiss Chard Cheddar Hand Pies
Swiss Chard Cheddar Hand Pies are delicious savory pastries filled with a mixture of Swiss chard (a leafy green vegetable), cheddar cheese, and other flavorful ingredients. The filling is enclosed in a flaky pastry crust and each hand pie is typically small enough to be enjoyed as a snack or appetizer. They are a tasty and portable way to enjoy the flavors of Swiss chard and cheddar cheese in a convenient hand-held form.
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry store-bought thawed
- 1 cup Swiss chard chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened.
- Add chopped Swiss chard to the pan and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry and cut it into 4 equal squares.
- Divide the Swiss chard mixture evenly among the pastry squares, leaving a border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of each portion.
- Fold the squares in half to create rectangles and press the edges firmly to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for extra security.
- Place the hand pies on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
- Allow the hand pies to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
