    Lay out the bottom halves of the sandwich thins onto a tray sprayed with low calorie cooking spray
    Share the mixture between them, and use a pastry brush and some beaten egg to paint around the edges so that you can ‘stick’ on the top of the sandwich thin, press the edges of the tops down firmly to seal the slices.

    Bake at 180c for 15 minutes until golden brown.
