Ingredients

• 2 pieces Puff pastry sheets
• 4 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 100 grams Cheddar cheese
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)
• 1 large Egg (for egg wash)
• 1 tablespoon Water (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly dust a clean countertop with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheets to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.

Step 3

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together 4 eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Chop the green onions into small pieces and grate the cheddar cheese.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the egg mixture and gently stir for 2-3 minutes until you have soft, creamy scrambled eggs. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.

Step 6

Stir the cheddar cheese and green onions into the scrambled eggs.

Step 7

Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the egg mixture onto the center of each puff pastry square, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 8

Fold the corners of the puff pastry squares towards the center to form a parcel, pinching the seams to seal. Alternatively, fold the pastry into a triangular pocket if preferred.

Step 9

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining egg with water to create an egg wash. Brush the top of each pastry with the egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 10

Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

Step 11

Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
