Ham and Cheese Pie

50 minutes

Ham and cheese pie is a true embodiment of Italian culinary comfort, where simple ingredients create a harmonious flavor. The tender dough made with sour cream and mayonnaise becomes airy and soft, while the filling of ham and hard cheese adds a rich, savory taste. In Italy, such pies are often served at cozy family dinners, baked to a golden crust that fills the home with the aromas of warm dough and melted cheese. This pie is perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a light dinner. It pairs wonderfully with fresh vegetables and a glass of white wine, creating an atmosphere of Mediterranean delight.
