I grew up calling these little egg tarts Savories and they really are no more than that; very simple to make and people love them - bacon and cheese how could you go wrong?! Just another quick appetizer option perfect for your next gathering!

Ingredients
1 - 2 sheets puff pastry, enough for 12 3 inch rounds
4 eggs
½ cup whole milk
½ small red onion, diced
2 strips of bacon, finely chopped
¾ cup sharp cheddar, grated
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ teaspoon salt and pepper
Instructions
Heat oven to 375 degrees.
In a small skillet, add the olive oil and cook bacon and onions until the onions are translucent and the bacon is beginning to crisp. Remove from the heat and spoon onto a paper towel lined bowl and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt and pepper together until combined and then fold in the grated cheese. Cut out twelve 3 ½ inch (96 mm) rounds from the puff pastry and place in a nonstick muffin tin, pushing down until pastry forms a cup. Spoon egg mixture into each pastry cup approximately ¾ full, followed by a sprinkle of the bacon and onion mixture into each. Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.
