Preparation method

Ingredients overview

600 g fresh puff pastry
200 g Prosciutto crudo
100 g sliced Emmentaler
100 g Pesto Rosso
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 egg
1 tbsp white sesame seeds

Divide the puff pastry into two equal parts and roll them out. Cut each part into squares (a total of 28 squares per 300 g of dough, graded from large to small) to be able to layer the Christmas trees.

Place a piece of Prosciutto, some Emmentaler, and a dollop of Pesto Rosso on each square (except the smallest one for the top). Stack the squares on top of each other by size, placing every second square slightly offset (diagonally) to achieve the shape of a Christmas tree. Secure with a wooden skewer.

Brush the Christmas trees with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C (top/bottom heat) for approx. 25–30 minutes until golden brown. After cooling, carefully remove the wooden skewers and garnish with fresh thyme.
