Step-by-Step Instructions for Baked Eggs Napoleon
- Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to package instructions, usually taking about 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut dough into 4-inch squares and lightly score a border around the edges.
- Brush the scored pastry squares with the egg wash. Optionally sprinkle everything bagel seasoning around the edges. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes until puffed up and golden brown.
- While the pastry shells are baking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped shallots and minced garlic, cooking for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Add fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in cream cheese, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, and season to taste.
- After the pastry shells have cooled slightly, press down the centers to create wells. Spoon the creamy spinach mixture into each well, filling generously but leaving room for the eggs.
- Crack a large egg into each filled pastry well. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and yolks runny.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to rest for a minute. Garnish with chopped chives and serve warm.

Notes
Puff pastry can be prepped ahead of time. For best results, reheat in the oven rather than the microwave.
