Sunnys Easy Breakfast Cottage Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Arrange 5 strips of the bacon in parallel rows on a baking sheet lined with parchment, the edges of the slices touching but not overlapping. Working with 1 strip at a time, arrange the remaining strips perpendicular to the first ones, weaving the strips over and under to form a lattice.
• Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Roll the puff pastry into a 12-inch square and press into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared dish. Trim the edges that overhang with a paring knife. Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, cheese, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Pour into the puff pastry shell. Bake the bacon lattice and the eggs until the bacon is just starting to crisp and the eggs are still jiggly in the center but slightly set, about 15 minutes.
• Use two spatulas to lift the bacon lattice and place it on top of the eggs. Continue baking until the bacon is golden brown and crisp and the eggs are set, about 25 minutes. The eggs will be very puffy (they will deflate as the pie rests). Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• For the bread: Using a serrated knife, make a rectangular block of the bread by slicing off the ends and leveling the top and bottom of the loaf. There should be no crust left. Slice the block in half lengthwise, making 2 planks.
• In a large bowl, whisk the heavy cream, chili powder, sriracha, eggs, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Pour the mixture into a wide flat dish, large enough to dunk the bread. Carefully dip each plank in the egg mixture, coating all sides.
• Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the bread planks and cook on all sides until the batter is set and the bread is light golden, 4 to 5 minutes on each large side, and another 2 minutes for each edge.
• For the filling: While still on the griddle, spread the raspberry jam on the entire top of one plank. Top with 4 slices of Gruyere, then all of the ham and turkey, shredding the meat as you go. Then cover with the remaining 4 slices of Gruyere. Like Jeff Mauro says, "crust to crust is a must!" In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and mustard together. Spread this mixture on the top of the remaining plank and lay it, mayonnaise-side down, on the other topped plank. Put an overturned metal bowl over the sandwich and cook a few minutes more to melt the cheese.
• For the finish: Carefully remove to a baking sheet and allow to cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar and use a serrated knife to cut 1 1/2-inch finger planks along the length. Serve with maple syrup to drizzle or dunk.

Steps:

• For the filling: Combine the raspberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepot on medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring, and cook until thick and reduced, 5 to 10 minutes. Set aside and let cool for 10 minutes.
• For the base: Preheat the oven or a grill to 350 degrees F. Spray the bottom and sides of a 9-inch cast-iron pan, pie pan or 8-inch square baking pan.
• Prepare the brownie batter according to the box instructions. Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Pour over the raspberry filling (you may not need it all), then add the remaining brownie batter. Break off little knobs of the cookie dough and place in splotches around the top of the pie. Bake or grill until the top is golden and a toothpick poked in the center doesn't come out wet with brownie batter, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool slightly, then cut or scoop out and serve with ice cream, if desired.
