Dough Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour This is the base of your dough, providing structure and a light texture.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder This helps the dough rise, making the sticks fluffy and light.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt A pinch of salt enhances the overall flavor of the sticks.
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper This adds a subtle kick, balancing the richness of the cheese and ham.
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese Cheddar gives a sharp, creamy flavor that melts beautifully.
  • 1/2 cup diced ham Diced ham adds a savory element, making these sticks hearty and satisfying.
  • 1/4 cup milk Milk keeps the dough moist and helps bind the ingredients together.
  • 1 large egg The egg acts as a binder, giving the dough a nice texture.
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter Butter adds richness and flavor, making the sticks even more delicious.

Method
 

  1. Gather all your ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, cheddar cheese, diced ham, milk, egg, and melted butter.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and diced ham, mixing evenly.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined.
  4. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for about 1. Knead until everything is combined without making it tough. Roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
  5. Cut the dough into strips approximately 1 inch wide and 4 inches long. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spaced about 1 inch apart.
  6. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Bake the ham and cheese sticks for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Remove the sticks from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
