Time 30m

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (17.3 ounce) box frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
Coarse salt and pepper
9 large eggs
1/2 cup grated Fontina (1 1/2 ounces)
8 thin slices prosciutto

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Unfold each sheet of puff pastry onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and cut each into 4 squares. With a paring knife, lightly score a border 1/4 inch from edges. Freeze 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, olive oil, and thyme, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Lightly beat 1 large egg and brush border of each pastry square. Pile some Fontina, tomato mixture, and a slice of prosciutto onto each square. Bake until tarts are golden brown and tomatoes have softened, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Use a spoon to create a well for each egg, then carefully crack 1 egg onto each tart. Bake until whites are just set and yolks are runny, 10 to 12 minutes.
