Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Divide the bacon slices among 2 large skillets. Cook in a single layer over medium-low heat, flipping once and draining the rendered fat as needed, until the bacon is almost fully cooked but still pliable enough to bend, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
- Unfold the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured work surface. Lightly roll each sheet with a rolling pin to seal together any folds..
- Using a sharp knife, cut each sheet into 9 equal squares. Place 1 puff pastry square in each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan, pressing it firmly into the bottom and sides and letting the edges hang over the cup. (Reserve and freeze the 6 leftover squares for another use.)
- Place 1 of the bacon strips in each puff pastry cup, letting the ends stick out.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs with the milk and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
- Divide the cheese among the puff pastry cups, followed by the egg mixture.
- Bake until the puff pastry is golden brown and the eggs are cooked through, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes then loosen the pastry cups around the edges with a paring or butter knife.
- Sprinkle the egg cups with the chives and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the eggs, or they will become rubbery.
- For creamier eggs, use heavy cream instead of milk.
- Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the eggs for flavor.
- If you don't have muffin tins, you can use ramekins or small oven-safe bowls.
- Serve the egg cups immediately, or they will start to deflate.
Conclusion:
Cheesy bacon egg cups are an easy and delicious breakfast or brunch recipe. They are perfect for meal prepping and can be easily customized to your liking. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a hot and satisfying meal in minutes. Serve with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, avocado, or hot sauce, to complete the dish. Enjoy!
