Savory Christmas trees are a fun and tasty idea to serve during the holidays, perhaps during a card game.
They are prepared in no time and are super appreciated!
I chose to flavor it with dried thyme, just to give it a more decisive and tasty flavor, but you can also use finely chopped oregano or rosemary.
They are perfect for an aperitif and also for an appetizer, perhaps paired with some cold cuts.
What do you think, shall we make them together? Then follow the recipe and you’ll see how good they are!!!
If you think of replicating my recipe, I will be very happy and if you like, send me a photo of the recipe you made and I will post it on my fb page in your name.

Preparation of Savory Christmas Trees
In a bowl, mix all the ingredients until a soft and well-worked dough is obtained, wrap it in cling film and put it in the fridge for 30 minutes, or in the freezer for 10 minutes if you are in a hurry.
Roll out the dough into a not too thin sheet and cut out the trees with a special cutter.
Transfer the trees onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, brush them with oil, and sprinkle with thyme.
Bake them in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10 minutes.
They can be enjoyed hot or cold.
