Ham & Egg Brunch Puffs
This recipe wasn't handed down from my mother—it was passed "up" from my granddaughter! It's now a favorite dish for Mother's Day…and year-round as well. —Judy Gochenour, Logan, Iowa

Easy dish to make for special occasions.
This is a great recipe but just as good and easier would be to make popovers and fill them. Believe me it is just as good. The popovers don't need to be hollowed out as they hollow somewhat during cooking. Also, the recipe is easy, just mix butter, eggs, milk and flour and pour into muffin pans, bake and fill.BTW, I would always use bacon or even baked spiced tofu instead of ham. Just my personal preference.
I loved your explanation of "passing up" from your grandaughter. I hadn't made cream puff shells in years and that is what this reminded me of. This easily could be something you could fill with just about anything you like sweet to savory. Nice recipe.
i was not happy with this recipe.. the puffs were much smaller than i expected.. and hard to work with .. not worth all the effort, altho still tasty not worth all the effort to me

Yum, Yum, Yum!!! Good for your grandaughter. This is soooo good, very elegant too, can be dressed up or down as the meal dictates. Don't discard the tops, put them back on and add a topping. Try it before you rate it. Not fair otherwise & a waste of time for those of us wanting an honest review.
I an interested in nutrition info...Want to try for a lunch where there is a person who needs to know nutrition info.....
I don't see how it matters that the puff recipe is the same for that of eclairs. There is no sugar in the puff pastry recipe, making this very versatile for dessert, breakfast, AND dinner recipes. I will be using this puff pastry recipe instead of buying the frozen kind for a host of different recipes. Thank you for sharing!
