Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
3 large eggs
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
1/2 cup cooked  sausage, crumbled
1/4 cup milk or cream
1/4 cup bell peppers, diced
2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

I start by preheating the oven to 200°C (400°F) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

I roll out the puff pastry slightly and place it on the prepared baking sheet. I gently score a small border around the edges to help it puff nicely while baking.

In a bowl, I whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. I lightly brush the pastry with olive oil, then pour the egg mixture over the center, keeping it within the border.

I sprinkle cheese,  sausage, bell peppers, and green onions evenly over the top.

I bake it for about 15–20 minutes, until the pastry is golden and the eggs are set. I let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Servings and timing

I usually get about 4 servings from this recipe.
Preparation time takes around 10 minutes, and baking time is 15–20 minutes.

Variations

I sometimes swap the meat for smoked salmon or keep it vegetarian with mushrooms and spinach. When I want extra flavor, I add herbs like thyme or parsley. I also like using different cheeses such as feta or goat cheese.

storage/reheating

I store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, I use the oven to keep the pastry crisp rather than using a microwave.
