Potato Ham Omelet Pie

As a holiday kickoff, my family gets together in early December for a hearty brunch before going out to cut our Christmas trees. This flavorful breakfast pie, assembled in layers, was a big hit at last year's gathering. -Shelly Rynearson, Oconomowoc, Wisconsin

Potato Ham Omelet Pie (continued)

Directions (continued)

In a large bowl, beat the eggs, parsley, water, salt and pepper. In a
10-in. skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter; add half of the egg
mixture. Cook over medium heat. As eggs set, lift edges, letting
uncooked portion flow underneath. Continue cooking until set. Slide
omelet onto a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining butter and egg
mixture to make a second omelet.
Sprinkle 1 cup cheese over prepared pastry. Top with one omelet and
half of the potato mixture. Layer with ham and the remaining potato
mixture, cheese, omelet and puff pastry. Trim pastry to fit dish;
seal and flute edges.
In a small bowl, combine egg and water; brush over pastry. Bake at
375° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand for 10
minutes before serving. Yield: 8 servings.
