This Slab Breakfast Pie is an easy breakfast recipe! Top store-bought puff pastry with eggs, bacon, and some mushrooms for an irresistible brunch!

There is simply nothing better than waking up in the morning to the smell of eggs and bacon cooking. I love waking up a few minutes early on the weekend to prep this easy breakfast recipe so when the rest of the family makes it downstairs, this pie is cooked with melted cheese and still soft eggs.

This Slab Breakfast Pie is easy to throw together thanks to the use of store-bought puff pastry and although I love the toppings showcased here, it’s very adaptable to everyone’s tastes and preferences.

I make a rotation of different toppings of this pie. Asparagus in the Spring, mushrooms year round, basil in the Summer, anything that compliments the eggs well. Roasted vegetables would also be great if you have any lingering from a dinner during the week.

Bacon is used when I have leftovers, otherwise, I use prosciutto or pancetta since it cooks on the puff pastry versus needing a precook. Cheese is also whatever I may have on hand. I do love Gruyère however. The tang of Gruyère with the woodsy mushrooms and salty bacon make a match made in brunch heaven.

Slab Breakfast Pie | My Kitchen LoveI have been known to over cook the eggs on this pie. You really have to watch them to make sure the egg white is cooked enough and the yolk is still soft. Two of my 3 kids prefer harder yolks and one only eats egg whites.

This pie is very easy to make work for everyone. I usually have one corner without cheese or yolks for my picky eater. And then more cheese and mushrooms for my other two who love both cheese and mushrooms. I can cut the pie up into sections and pop the pieces who need longer cooking time back into the oven to accommodate everyone without making 5 different dishes.

These gloomy very grey raining days have been getting me down a bit lately. The heavy cold rain makes getting outside with 3 young kids almost impossible (I do force an outing now and then much to everyone’s dissatisfaction).

It’s dishes like this one that make me love the slow weekend mornings where breakfast can last all morning and pjs stay on till noon. Weekdays can get so busy that slow food days give me a boost to get through the next week. What’s your favourite slow morning meal? Or any easy breakfast recipe my family could love?
