Time 45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 slices bacon
All-purpose flour, for dusting
One 17.3-ounce package frozen puff pastry (2 sheets), thawed
8 large eggs
1/4 cup milk or heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup shredded Cheddar
2 tablespoons minced chives

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.

These were a little too greasy for my liking. I think I would use less bacon next time.

I had some trouble getting the eggs to cook evenly. I think I would cook them separately next time.

These were a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more seasoning next time.

I made these for breakfast this morning and they were delicious! I used sourdough bread and added some diced bell peppers and onions to the eggs. They were so easy to make and I will definitely be making them again.

These bacon egg and cheese toast cups were a hit with my family! They were so easy to make and turned out perfectly. The bacon was crispy, the eggs were fluffy, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again!
