• Ready In: 25mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Yields: 4 tarts
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• all-purpose flour, for dusting
• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed (half of a 17-to-18-ounce package)
• 2 slices bacon
• 1 1⁄2 cups havarti cheese, shredded
• 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese, shredded
• 4 large eggs
• kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
• chopped fresh chives, for topping

directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 12-inch square, then cut into 4 equal squares. Slightly fold and pinch the edges of each square to form 4 round tart shells. Transfer to the prepared baking sheets and prick all over with a fork. Bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat, turning, until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then crumble.
3. Let the tart shells cool slightly on the baking sheets. If the centers are very puffy, prick with a fork to deflate. Sprinkle evenly with the havarti and parmesan. Make a shallow well in the cheese in the center of each tart and crack an egg into each; season with salt and pepper. Top with the bacon, then return to the oven and bake until the egg whites are set, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with chives.
