Ingredients

Here are the ingredients needed to make a breakfast pie for 3 people:

a handful of grated Gruyère cheese

Preparation

The preparation of the breakfast pie is very simple.

1- Unroll the puff pastry in a pie dish, keeping the baking paper.

2- Roll up the edges of the pastry to form a small sausage. Prick the bottom of the pastry with a fork.

3- Fry the bacon strips for a few minutes.
Be careful: they should not be fried, but simply remain pink.
Drain them to remove the fat.
