2. Interactive Ingredients Checklist & Keto / High-Protein Swaps
When it comes to the ingredients, I recommend using high-quality prosciutto and cheddar cheese for the best flavor.
Don’t skip the fresh parsley – it adds a bright, fresh flavor to the pie.
For the puff pastry, I recommend using a store-bought package to save time.
If you’re feeling adventurous, try using almond flour or coconut flour to make a low-carb puff pastry!

Chef Sofia’s Tested Swaps (High-Protein · Keto/Low-Carb · Air Fryer)
• High-Protein Boost: Swap prosciutto with 4 oz of cooked chicken breast for an extra 20g of protein!
• Keto & Low-Carb Swap: Use almond flour or coconut flour to make a low-carb puff pastry, and reduce the cheese to 1/2 cup for a 5g net carb reduction!
• Air Fryer Option: Cook the flat ham pie in the air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, shaking halfway through for a crispy crust!
