Sunday Morning Delight: Bacon & Egg Pastries – A Family Tradition

There’s something magical about Sunday mornings—the aroma of coffee, the soft chatter of loved ones, and the irresistible smell of freshly baked pastries wafting from the kitchen. For our family, this tradition always includes one special treat: bacon and egg pastries. Crispy, savory, and comforting, these little bundles of flavor are as much about memories as they are about food. Here’s how we make them, step by step.

Ingredients You’ll Need:

1 sheet of puff pastry (store-bought works fine, or homemade if you’re feeling ambitious)
4-6 large eggs (depending on pastry size)
6-8 slices of bacon (thick-cut is best for flavor)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional extras: chopped chives, a dash of paprika, or a smear of mustard for added zing

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Start by preheating your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This ensures your pastries won’t stick and makes cleanup a breeze.

While the oven warms, cut your puff pastry into squares. Depending on the size of your bacon slices and eggs, a 4×4 inch square works perfectly.

Step 2: Cook the Bacon

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it’s partially crispy, but not too crunchy—you want it to finish cooking in the oven. Drain on a paper towel to remove excess grease. Tip: save a teaspoon of the bacon fat—it adds flavor if you want to lightly brush the pastry.
