In a medium mixing bowl beat together eggs, cream, salt, pepper and chives. Step 3Unfold thawed puff pastry and place on a lightly floured surface. Smooth creases in pastry with your finger and roll out dough into 1/4" thickness. Cut into 4 equal squares and place each into the center of 4 large ramekins or 4 small cast-iron skillets.

This asparagus quiche recipe is the perfect brunch recipe. With little effort and an impressive presentation, guests will be begging you for the recipe. Here’s everything you need to know before you get started.  How much will this serve?  For each sheet of puff pastry, you’ll get four servings. But you can easily double it.  How do I make the crust? You’ll need to make sure that the dough is thawed (so try to refrigerate if overnight if you can!) before unrolling and cutting it. Once divided into four squares, place the dough into mini skillets (to be EXTRA cute) or large ramekins. It needs to be a deep vessel so that the crust can contain the egg mixture.  Don’t have mini skillets or ramekins? Don’t even bother cutting the puff pastry. Instead, roll it out slightly and place it in a medium-sized baking dish so that all four edges come up the sides slightly.  Can I swap asparagus? Yes, baby spinach and broccoli are also good in this whole bacon, egg, and buttery pastry situation.
