This is a fancy way to get your fried baked egg- bake it within a pastry! I added some extra goodies like sun-dried tomatoes, spinach and Parmesan cheese to give this breakfast its extra flavor boost.
Ingredients needed:
Puff Pastry eggs water Dijon mustard sun-dried tomatoes fresh spinach Parmesan cheese salt and pepper
How to make Baked Italian Egg Pastries:
First you’ll use a round cutter to cut four circles in a piece of puff pastry. Then you’re going to brush it with an egg wash (egg mixed with water and Dijon mustard).
That sticky egg wash comes in handy because you’ll then press some chopped spinach and sun-dried tomatoes into the pastry.
Another brush of the egg wash ensures that all of those goodies stay put while baking. Then bake!
When you bake, the pastry will puff up like this.
Grab your cutter, cut out those pastry circles that you previously pre-cut and toss them out.
Here’s the fun part! Crack an egg into each circle. Bake again!
When it comes out of the oven a second time, your eggs will be baked to perfection. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper on top. These Italian Egg Pastries are ready to eat!
Cut the pastry into four neat slices.
And dig in!
