Egg in a basket

A light, easy breakfast, with an incredible cute factor.

•2 small squares of puff pastry (big enough
to fill the cavity of a muffin tin and have the
corners stick out)
•2 eggs
•1 scallion
•some grated cheese
•salt, pepper
•a muffin tin
•butter or baking spray to grease the muffin tin

Grease 2 cavities of your muffin tin. Place a sheet of puff pastry in each greased tin.Push it down so it’s easy to fill, be careful not to poke holes, and makes sure a little of the puff pastry comes out on top to create
the cute basket effect.

Slice your scallion into small rings. Put a little but of grated cheese and some scallion on the bottom of the pastry cup. Crack an egg in each cup and sprinkle some more cheese (jsut a tiny little bit) and a couple of rings of scallion on top of the raw egg.
Grind a little fresh black pepper over the egg.

Place muffin tin with puff pastry and eggs in a pre-heated oven (350F) and bake until the visible part of the puff pastry is puffed and crispy and the egg is cooked to your
preferred doneness.

Remove the puff pastry baskets with the cooked egg from the muffin tin and place on a plate. Voila, cute eggs in a basket.
