Step-by-Step Instructions for Sausage and Egg Pies

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Unroll the chilled puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut out circles about 4 inches in diameter.
Line each muffin tin cup with the puff pastry circles, pressing down gently.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sausage meat, 3 beaten eggs, and cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
Spoon the sausage mixture into each lined pastry cup, filling just below the rim.
Brush the edges of each pastry with reserved beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is firm.
Cool for 5-10 minutes before serving warm.
