Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut each pasty sheet into 4 equal squares and transfer squares onto a Silpat (or parchment) lined baking sheet. Brush all squares with egg wash and fill each square with a 2 to 3 slices of tomato and a slice or two of mozzarella. Top each caprese with 2 basil leaves and then add fresh cracked pepper and salt to taste. Fold the pasty over to form a triangle and seal the edges with your fingertips. Egg wash the top and poke a small vent hold in the top with a knife. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Inside will be very hot so cool slightly before eating
