Calories: 429kcal
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed according to package directions
- 1 large egg, room temperature, beaten
- 4 slices (4 ounces) deli ham, diced (about 1 cup), divided
- ¾ cup (85 g) Swiss cheese, shredded, divided
- ¾ cup (85 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
- 1 cup scrambled eggs, (4-5 large eggs) prepared to your liking, divided
- salt and pepper, to taste
- chives or parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet to a 10-inch square on a lightly floured surface. Cut the sheet into 4 equal-sized squares, about 5x5 inches in size.
- Arrange the puff pastries evenly onto the lined baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each pastry.
- Use a fork to poke a few holes into the middle of each pastry sheet. Be sure to leave about a ½-inch perimeter around the edge. This will allow the outside border to puff up while the center stays low.
- Beat the egg in a small dish. Brush the edges of each pastry with the beaten egg.
- Distribute the ham equally between the four pastries.
- Top each pastry with ¼ cup scrambled eggs. Then, evenly divide both kinds of cheese on top of the eggs.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the pastry is golden brown.
