Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out your puff pastry to fit the size of your baking sheet, trimming the edges as needed. Score a half-inch border around the edges and prick the inner square with a fork.
  3. Whisk one egg with a splash of water to create an egg wash. Brush this mixture over the puff pastry and sprinkle with Everything But The Bagel seasoning. Bake for approximately 10 minutes until lightly golden.
  4. Remove the baked pastry from the oven. Spread a generous layer of Boursin cheese over the crust and carefully crack the eggs on top, seasoning with kosher salt.
  5. Bake for an additional 12 to 14 minutes until the eggs are set. The crust should be golden.
  6. Let the tart cool slightly, sprinkle with green onions and prosciutto strips. Serve with dressed arugula.
  7. Slice the tart into generous squares and enjoy alongside the arugula for an impressive brunch dish.
