Description
These warm, flaky breakfast puffs are filled with scrambled egg, crumbled sausage, and melty cheddar, making for a savory morning treat everyone will love.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package of puff pastry sheets
- 1 cup cooked and crumbled sausage
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. If your puff pastry is frozen, thaw it in the fridge until pliable, then gently roll it out on a lightly floured surface and cut it into 8 equal squares. Crack the extra egg into a small bowl and beat it lightly for the egg wash.
- Whisk together the 4 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until blended. Stir in the cooked and crumbled sausage until evenly combined.
- Place a spoonful (about 2 tablespoons) of the egg-and-sausage mixture onto the center of each pastry square. Top each with a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Fold the pastry over the filling to form a pocket and press the edges to seal.
- Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and deep golden brown.
- Remove the puffs to a rack to cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm.
Notes
Serve warm with ketchup, hot sauce, or a side of fruit. These puffs are easy to customize with different fillings.
