A New Zealand puff-pastry pie filled with whole eggs and bacon.
About Bacon and egg pie
Bacon and egg pie is a New Zealand classic represented here by NZ Eggs' published recipe. Puff pastry encloses bacon and whole eggs, with spring onion offered as an optional addition.
Bacon supplies a salty, savoury flavour against the mild eggs. Salt and pepper season the filling, while the pastry contributes its own rich baked character.
The pastry lid is golden and crisp over the set egg filling. The source serves the pie warm or cold, allowing it to be portioned for a meal or picnic.
