Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.25 cups Milk
- 1 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cups Cooked bacon or sausage (chopped)
- 0.5 cups Chopped spinach
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
- 1 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Dust your work surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheets to smooth out any creases. Use a 4-5 inch round cutter (or a bowl) to cut circles out of the pastry. Re-roll scraps if necessary to get 12 circles.
Press each pastry circle into a muffin tin cup, ensuring it lines the bottom and sides. Allow a little overhang at the edges.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper.
Divide the cooked bacon or sausage evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Add a small amount of chopped spinach to each cup.
Pour the egg mixture into each pastry-lined cup, filling them about 3/4 full to leave room for expansion during cooking.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of each pie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the egg filling is set.
Allow the breakfast pies to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before removing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
