Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.

- While the bacon is baking, grate the cheese.
- Crack 6 eggs into a medium-size bowl and whisk until smooth and well combined. There should be no white streaks. Add salt and pepper.
- Melt the butter in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and crumbled bacon, and let the eggs cook for a few seconds without stirring them. With a spatula or spoon, make large curds by pulling them across the bottom of the pan. Continue until the eggs are almost set. There will still be a little liquid in the eggs.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to form a 12-inch by 12-inch square. Cut the square into 9 squares, each 4-inches by 4-inches.
- Make an egg wash by whisking 1 egg with 1 tablespoon of water until well combined.
- Line an 18-inch by 13-inch sheet pan with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
- To make the bundles, place 2 tablespoons of scrambled eggs diagonally on the puff pastry square. Top with 2 tablespoons of cheese.
- Lift the one side of the puff pastry square and fold it over the scrambled eggs and cheese. Brush the puff pastry with egg wash and fold the opposite corner of the pastry over to make a bundle. Press to seal. Finish remaining bundles

- Roll the dough out gently, or it won't be as flaky.
