Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

9 strips bacon
Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing the pan
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-ounce box), thawed
12 large eggs
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
12 ounces pepper jack cheese, shredded (about 3 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Arrange 5 strips of the bacon in parallel rows on a baking sheet lined with parchment, the edges of the slices touching but not overlapping. Working with 1 strip at a time, arrange the remaining strips perpendicular to the first ones, weaving the strips over and under to form a lattice.
  • Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Roll the puff pastry into a 12-inch square and press into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared dish. Trim the edges that overhang with a paring knife. Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, cheese, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Pour into the puff pastry shell. Bake the bacon lattice and the eggs until the bacon is just starting to crisp and the eggs are still jiggly in the center but slightly set, about 15 minutes.
  • Use two spatulas to lift the bacon lattice and place it on top of the eggs. Continue baking until the bacon is golden brown and crisp and the eggs are set, about 25 minutes. The eggs will be very puffy (they will deflate as the pie rests). Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

This is a great fill you up, stick to your ribs till lunch breakfast. Leftovers are great warmed up for late night snack. You need to make two crusts as this will be using a lid. crust recipe is from crisco. so much better than store bought in my opinion. Takes a little extra time, but hey who cares if the results are worth it.

1/2 lb thick sliced bacon, crumbled

  • Roll dough up onto your rolling pin and roll out over 9in deep dish pie plate.
  • Gently lift up edges and help crust down into the pie plate starting in the center and moving to the outer edges to remove air out from under crust.
  • With a fork poke holes in bottom of pie crust. (this helps air escape so it doesn't bubble up in the middle.).
  • Flute edges as desired.

  • Mix sausage and bacon together and put in pie crust.

  • Take the second pie crust and use as a lid on the pie.

  • Brush lid with rest of whisked yolk.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 min or until crust is golden brown.
