Description

A celebratory brunch dish featuring flaky puff pastry, savory fillings, melty cheese, and a jammy baked egg on top.


Ingredients

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (17.3 oz)
  • 2–3 tbsp sautéed spinach
  • 1 slice ham
  • 2 tbsp grated Gruyère cheese
  • 4 large eggs
  • Flaky sea salt (for serving)
  • Chopped chives (for serving)
  • Cracked black pepper (for serving)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll and cut the puff pastry into four 5-inch squares, scoring a 1/2-inch border on each.
  3. Blind-bake the squares on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 8–10 minutes with another sheet on top.
  4. Remove the top sheet and press the centers to form wells.
  5. Add sautéed spinach or ham and grated Gruyère cheese into each well.
  6. Crack an egg into each well.
  7. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 10–14 minutes until whites are set and yolks are still jammy.
  8. Let rest for 2 minutes before serving with salt, chives, and pepper.

Notes

For added flavor, serve warm with a side salad or roasted tomatoes. Experiment with different fillings to customize your pastries.
