Description

Baked Eggs Napoleon is a delightful brunch dish featuring flaky puff pastry, creamy spinach filling, and perfectly baked eggs.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (14.1 ounce) frozen puff pastry sheets
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 10 ounce fresh spinach, washed and roughly chopped
  • 4 ounce cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 4 large eggs
  • Fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheets and cut them into desired shapes, such as rounds or rectangles. Brush the pastry with the beaten egg and, if desired, sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown. Allow the pastry shells to cool slightly.

3. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the shallot and garlic in olive oil until fragrant. Add the fresh spinach and cook until it’s wilted. Remove from heat and stir in the cream cheese, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

4. Spoon the creamy spinach filling into the baked puff pastry shells. Create a small well in the center of each filled shell and carefully crack an egg into each well.

5. Return the filled shells to the oven and bake for 8–12 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness.

6. Sprinkle the Baked Eggs Napoleon with chopped fresh chives, and season with salt and pepper. Serve the dish warm, allowing the runny yolks to ooze out with each bite.

Notes

Serve with a fresh salad or roasted potatoes for a complete brunch spread. Customize with additional fillings like sautéed mushrooms or feta cheese.
