Description

Ingredients

• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry (half of a 17-18 ounce package) thawed
• 2 strips bacon
• 1 1/2 cups shredded havarti cheese
• 3 tablespoon shredded parmesan cheese
• 4 large eggs
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper ( I used fine sea salt)
• Chopped fresh chives, for topping

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 425* F. Line 2 baking sheet with parchment paper ( I only used 1 large baking sheet).
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 12 inch square, then cut into 4 equal squares ( I didn’t flour my surface, because I forgot but it was fine. I also didn’t make sure it was a 12 inch square, but it was close enough). Slightly fold and pinch the edges of each square to form 4 round tart shells.
• Transfer to the prepared baking sheets and prick all over with a fork. Bake until golden, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat, turning, until crisp, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then crumble.
• Let the tart shells cool slightly on the baking sheets. If the centers are very puffy, prick with a fork to deflate ( I had to both times). Sprinkle evenly with the havarti and Parmesan. Make a shallow well in the cheese in the center of each tart and crack an egg into each, season with salt and pepper. Top with the bacon, then return of the oven and bake until the egg whites are set, 10-15 minutes. Top with chives.
