Puff Pastry Breakfast Pizza
Ingredients
1 package frozen puff pastry, contains 2 sheets
8 oz bacon, chopped and cooked. Divided into 2 portions.
1 c. shredded cheddar. Divided into 2 portions.
1 c. shredded mozzarella. Divided into 2 portions.
10 eggs. Divided into 2 portions.
½ c. milk. Divided into 2 portion
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Thaw the puff pastry to package directions. Preheat oven to 350. Place thawed dough sheet onto lightly floured parchment sheet. Roll out slightly to half original thickness. Slightly fold the edges over around the perimeter of the dough. Spray or brush the dough with a little oil. Slide the dough onto a baking sheet and lightly prick the surface with a fork, though not going entirely through the dough. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until it starts to brown. Do this with both dough sheets.
While the dough bakes, whisk together the eggs, milk and a little salt and pepper
When the dough comes out, using a fork gently press the middle of the dough down, trying to keep the edges up. Onto each cooked dough, sprinkle on the cheeses and bacon. Pour over the egg and bake 10 to 12 minutes or until the egg sets. Slice and serve.
