Instructions:
2. Make the Dough:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and grated parmesan cheese.
- Stir the mixture to evenly distribute the ingredients.
- Take small portions of the dough and press them into mini muffin tins or tartlet pans to form little cups.
- Make sure the dough is evenly pressed and covers the sides of each cup.
- Place the muffin tin or tartlet pans in the preheated oven.
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the croustades are golden and crispy.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before removing the croustades from the tins.
- Crack the 6 eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with the heavy whipping cream until well combined.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter.
- Once the butter is melted and starting to bubble, pour in the egg mixture.
- Stir the eggs continuously with a spatula, making sure to move the eggs around the skillet so they cook evenly.
- Cook until the eggs are soft and creamy, but not fully set (as they will continue to cook slightly after being removed from the heat).
- Spoon the scrambled eggs into the prepared croustade cups generously.
- Finish by drizzling a small amount of truffle oil over each croustade for an added layer of flavor.
- Arrange the croustades on a serving platter and serve immediately while warm.
- Enjoy these delightful little croustades as an elegant appetizer or a fancy brunch item!
Tips:
- Ensure the eggs are cooked on low heat to maintain the creaminess and avoid overcooking.
- Use high-quality truffle oil for an enhanced and authentic flavor.
- To make the croustades extra crispy, pre-bake the dough slightly before adding the scrambled egg mixture.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like chives or parsley for an extra touch of color and flavor.
These little croustades with scrambled eggs and truffle oil are not just delicious but also eye-catching, offering a touch of elegance to your dining experience.
