Ingredients

Scale

For the Pastries:

  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 3 large eggs
  • ¼ cup heavy cream or milk
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar or Swiss cheese
  • 4 strips bacon, cooked & crumbled (or ½ cup cooked sausage)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ cup green onions or chives, chopped
  • 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)

For Garnish (Optional):

  • Sesame seeds or poppy seeds
  • Fresh parsley or thyme

Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep the Pastry

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface and cut into 6 equal squares.
  3. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

2. Prepare the Egg Mixture

  1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  2. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently, until just set (slightly undercooked, as they’ll bake further).
  3. Remove from heat and mix in cheese and crumbled bacon/sausage.

3. Assemble the Pastries

  1. Spoon 2 tbsp of egg mixture onto the center of each puff pastry square.
  2. Fold corners toward the center, leaving a small gap to show the filling.
  3. Brush edges with egg wash (1 beaten egg mixed with 1 tbsp water).
  4. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional).

4. Bake & Serve

  1. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown and puffed.
  2. Let cool for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh herbs.
  3. Serve warm with hot sauce, salsa, or a side of fruit!

Notes

  • Make it vegetarian: Skip the meat and add sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or roasted peppers.
  • Use different cheeses: Try feta, mozzarella, or pepper jack for extra flavor.
  • Storage: Keep in the fridge for 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes.
