12 Free Range Eggs

Method

As individual cuts may vary in shape/size, please check that they are cooked and seasoned to your liking, ahead of serving.

Step 1 Preheat oven to 180C.
Step 2 10 mins In a frypan cook the sliced onion in a little cooking oil on medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until softened. Add the bacon and cook until all liquids have evaporated, about 5-8 minutes.
Step 3 5 mins While the bacon is cooking, grease your baking dish well and unwrap the pastry. Make sure the pastry will fit your baking dish and if needed roll it out a little extra. Lay the pastry into the baking dish, pressing it into the bottom and sides.
Step 4 5 mins Cut off any excess pastry at the edges and corners and carefully crimp the pastry on all sides so it sits flat against the baking dish. Place in the fridge until needed.
Step 5 2 mins Beat the eggs with the milk and add the salt and pepper to your liking.
Step 6 2 mins Once the bacon is cooked, tip it into the pastry case followed by the eggs and even the bacon out.
Step 7 40 mins Place in preheated oven and cook for 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted into the pie shows the egg is cooked inside. Serve hot or completely cook and tip out of the baking dish and slice.
