Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup Spinach, chopped
- 0.75 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 portion Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water)
- 1 tablespoon Flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Roll out the puff pastry sheets slightly to even out the thickness, and then cut each sheet into four equal squares. Set aside.
In a medium skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the chopped spinach and cook for another 1-2 minutes until wilted. Transfer the veggies to a bowl.
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over low-medium heat. Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a small bowl, then pour the mixture into the skillet. Cook gently, stirring frequently, until the eggs are set but still slightly soft. Remove from heat and mix in the sautéed vegetables.
Place a generous spoonful of the egg and vegetable mixture onto the center of each puff pastry square. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the filling.
Fold the corners of each pastry square toward the center, lightly pinching the edges to seal and form a pocket. Place the pockets on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the pastry pockets with the egg wash to ensure a golden, shiny finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Pocket Scramble as a portable breakfast or snack!
