Ingredients

• 1 package Puff pastry sheets
• 6 large Eggs
• 6 slices Ham
• 1 cup Shredded cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional)
• 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Unroll the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface and use a large round cookie cutter (about 4 inches in diameter) to cut out 6 circles. If needed, roll out the dough slightly to make more circles.

Step 3

Press each puff pastry circle into the muffin tin cups, ensuring they form a flower-like shape by gently molding the edges upward.

Step 4

Place a slice of ham inside each puff pastry cup, adjusting it to fit snugly into the flower shape.

Step 5

Sprinkle a generous pinch of shredded cheese into each ham cup.

Step 6

Carefully crack one egg into each cup, ensuring the yolk stays intact. Add a small pinch of salt and black pepper to each egg.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny (adjust time to your texture preference).

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the Breakfast Flowers cool for about 5 minutes before carefully loosening them with a spatula and transferring them to a serving plate.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
