Ingredients

Dough

Other Ingredients

  • 1 small potato and mandolin into rounds 1/4-inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • ¼ lb. breakfast sausage
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • ½ red bell pepper diced
  • ¼ cup chopped white onion
  • 2 oz. shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Place the potato rounds into a bowl, cover with water, and set aside.
  • Place the flour, brown sugar, salt, and butter in a food processor and pulse to break up the butter. Next, add the cottage cheese and pulse to combine. It should look crumbly, but not wet.

  • Turn the processor on and slowly add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Once a ball has started to form, you can stop. Set aside.

  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the breakfast sausage and break apart into larger chunks. Cook for 2-3 minutes to brown the sausage. Remove from heat and set aside.

  • Transfer the dough to a floured work surface. Roll dough into a 10-12 inch circle.

  • Remove the potatoes from the water and pat each round dry. Place the potato slices in the center of the circle, leaving roughly a 1.5-inch border. It is okay for them to overlap.
  • Top the potato slices with the breakfast sausage, bell pepper, onion, and shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Fold the border towards the center of the galette. Then, make 4 wells in the galette to place the eggs.

  • Crack 1 egg in each well. Some eggs may drip down the sides, but that is ok.

  • Bake the breakfast galette for 15-20 minutes or until desired egg doneness. The bottom of the crust should be golden brown, and the egg whites should be fully cooked.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving
