Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet of pre-made puff pastry
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Gruyère, or your favorite)
- 1/2 cup diced vegetables (such as bell peppers, onions, spinach)
- 2 tablespoons cooked and crumbled bacon or ham (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: fresh herbs for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin. Roll out the puff pastry and cut into circles to line the muffin cups.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in cheese, vegetables, and optional meat.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pastry-lined muffin cups, filling them almost to the top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and set. Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with herbs if desired.
Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Blind bake the pastry for a few minutes to prevent sogginess.
- Avoid overfilling the cups to reduce overflow risks.
- Ensure accurate oven temperature for even baking.
- Cool slightly to prevent breaking when removing from the tin.
