Ingredients and supplies

  • 2 heads of broccoli
  • 7 slices of (butter) puff pastry
  • 400 ml cream
  • 3 eggs
  • 200 g cubes or slices of bacon
  • 350 g grated (old) cheese
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 0.5 tsp nutmeg
  • pepper

Prep-work

Fry the bacon over low heat until crispy.

In the meantime, cut the broccoli into small pieces, using both the florets and the stalk.

The skin of the stalk may be tough, if so, peel it.

Cook the broccoli for 2 minutes until just cooked.

Let the puff pastry slices thaw.

In a large measuring cup/bowl, mix the eggs with the nutmeg and pepper.

Squeeze the garlic over it. Then mix in the cream.

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 190 degrees.

Place the puff pastry sheets on the baking tray as shown in the photo.

Spread the bacon evenly over the base.

Place half of the broccoli on top.

Place half of the cheese on top.

Then the other half of the broccoli and the other half of the cheese.

Pour the cream/egg mixture over this,

Bake the cake in a preheated oven for 1 hour.

Tip 1: If the puff pastry is not yet crispy and brown, put the pie in the oven for another 15 minutes without the ring of the baking tin.

Tip 2: 1 egg coagulates 100 ml of liquid. The ratio of 3 eggs to 400 ml of cream makes for a moist cake.

Tip 3: You can replace the cream with milk.

Delicious with a fresh salad!
