Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Puff pastry sheets
- 6 large Eggs
- 6 slices Ham
- 1 cup Shredded cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional)
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
Unroll the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface and use a large round cookie cutter (about 4 inches in diameter) to cut out 6 circles. If needed, roll out the dough slightly to make more circles.
Press each puff pastry circle into the muffin tin cups, ensuring they form a flower-like shape by gently molding the edges upward.
Place a slice of ham inside each puff pastry cup, adjusting it to fit snugly into the flower shape.
Sprinkle a generous pinch of shredded cheese into each ham cup.
Carefully crack one egg into each cup, ensuring the yolk stays intact. Add a small pinch of salt and black pepper to each egg.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny (adjust time to your texture preference).
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the Breakfast Flowers cool for about 5 minutes before carefully loosening them with a spatula and transferring them to a serving plate.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
