Step-by-Step Instructions for Baked Eggs Napoleon
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and gather all your ingredients.
  2. Roll out your puff pastry and cut into rectangles fitting your greased baking dish.
  3. Grease your baking dish or ramekins with butter to prevent sticking.
  4. Place the pastry rectangles into greased dishes, allowing them to overlap slightly.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, thyme, and chives.
  6. Add shredded cheese to the egg mixture and fold in gently.
  7. Pour the egg and cheese mixture into each pastry-lined dish, filling just below the rim.
  8. Sprinkle reserved shredded cheese on top of the filled pastries.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the egg mixture is set and the pastry is golden brown.
  10. Cool for 5-10 minutes, garnish with parsley and serve.
