1

Prepare the baking cups. Layer 3 foil baking cups for each to make 9 cups. Evenly coat inside with cooking spray.

2

Line each baking cup with pastry sheet dough. Unroll the puff pastry dough and make a 10” square. Then cut into 9 squares. Line each cup with a dough square and fold excess inside to fit to the shape of the baking cup. Place lined baking cups on the baking tray. Prick base of the dough with a fork.

3

Prepare the filling. In a medium bowl, whisk cream, egg, egg yolk, salt, parsley flakes and ground nutmeg together. Set aside.

4

Distribute half of the cheese into the dough-lined baking cups. Top with chopped ham, minced tomato and remaining cheese. Evenly pour the egg mixture from step 3 into the cups.

5

Preheat the Toaster Oven by setting the Temperature Dial to 350°F. Place tomato halves cut side up, at the center of each cup. Place the baking tray in the Toaster Oven and bake for 15 minutes. Then reduce temperature to 325°F and turn the baking tray 180 degrees to bake evenly. Bake an additional 10 minutes or until the filling is puffed and set.
