- 1 sheet puff pastry * thawed
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt * or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper * or to taste
- 2 strips bacon * cooked, crumbled
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese * shredded
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Spray 9 wells of a standard cupcake pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Cut one sheet of puff pastry into 9 squares and place each square into each well.
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and season with salt and pepper.
Divide the bacon evenly into the puff pastry cups, along with half of the cheese and all of the egg mixture. Then top with the remaining cheese and extra bacon, if desired.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the egg is set and the puff pastry is golden. Note: puff pastry will settle down as it cools.
Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
