Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 0.5 pound bacon cooked and crumbled
- 4 eggs
- 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
- 0.5 cup shredded cheese cheddar or gruyere
- 1 tablespoon milk
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into four equal squares.
- Score a smaller square inside each puff pastry square, about 0.5 inch from the edges. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
- Brush the edges of each square with milk for an egg wash. Sprinkle the cheese inside the scored squares.
- Divide the crumbled bacon among the cheese-covered areas. Season with salt and pepper.
- Carefully crack one egg into the center of each galette, directly on top of the bacon and cheese.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of smoked paprika to the bacon. If you prefer a firmer yolk, cook for a few extra minutes.
