Ingredients
- 640 g Ready rolled shortcrust pastry 2x 320g packets
- 8 Rashers of streaky bacon
- 1 Onion diced
- 80 g Cheddar cheese grated
- 3 Eggs
- 150 ml Double cream
- 5 g Chives chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C Fan. Spray a 12-hole muffin tin with spray oil.
- Use an 8 cm round cutter to cut out 12 circles from the shortcrust pastry. Press each one into the holes of the muffin tin, making sure there is no air trapped underneath.
- Bake it for 5 minutes, then take it out and leave to cool down. If any of them rise, use a teaspoon to flatten them down gently.
- Slice the bacon rashers into thin strips, then pan fry for 2 minutes over a medium to high heat.
- Add in the onion and cook for a further 4-5 minutes, or until the onions have softened.
- Sprinkle a little bit of grated cheese into each pastry cup. Then use a tsp to add some of the bacon and onion mixture.
- Add the eggs into a mixing bowl and lightly beat them. Add in the double cream, chives, and a little bit of salt and black pepper. Mix well.
- Divide the mixture between the 12 holes, then bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden and risen.
- Leave them to cool for 10 minutes before scooping them out, then enjoy.

Just made these again as they were a hit, this time using a different filling, great alternative in lunch boxes to a sandwich, but they don’t last long!!!
