Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (17.3-ounce) puff pastry sheets

  • 24 small squares of cheese, optional
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning or sesame seeds

Instructions

  3. In a small bowl, whisk the egg with Dijon mustard and 2 teaspoons of water. Brush some of the egg wash on one side of each square. Roll up, making sure the dough meets the egg-washed edge to seal. Otherwise, the puff pastry could unroll as it bakes.
