Ingredients

• 1 piece Puff pastry sheet
• 200 grams Button mushrooms
• 150 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 6 pieces Bacon strips
• 5 pieces Eggs
• 100 ml Heavy cream
• 75 grams Grated cheese (cheddar or Gruyere)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or tart pan.

Step 2

Roll out the puff pastry sheet and carefully line the pie dish with it, trimming off any excess pastry. Prick the base with a fork and chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the bacon strips and cook until crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain, then chop into small pieces.

Step 4

In the same pan, sauté the button mushrooms until golden and slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt, then remove from heat.

Step 5

Wash and halve the cherry tomatoes. Set them aside with the cooked mushrooms and bacon.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, whisk together 4 eggs, heavy cream, 60 grams of grated cheese, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 7

Take the chilled pie crust from the refrigerator. Spread the cooked mushrooms, tomatoes, and bacon evenly over the base.

Step 8

Pour the egg and cream mixture over the filling, ensuring it is evenly distributed. Crack the remaining egg on top of the pie for a rustic look.

Step 9

Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese over the top.

Step 10

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 11

Remove the pie from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.
