I made this yesterday and put it in the oven this morning. I baked it for 40 minutes at 350, then kicked up the temp to 400 for 20 more minutes. I thought it was bland, even though I added half an onion, diced. It was okay. My friend said she liked it so I sent her home with most of the rest of the pie.
Cut the thawed puff pastry in half. Roll one half to an 11" square, the other to a 12" square.
Line the bottom and side of a 9" greased Springform pan with the 12" puff pastry square
Reserve 1 tbsp of the beaten eggs.
Add the ricotta cheese, pepper sauce & spinach to the remaining eggs, mix until blended.
Layer half of the bacon bits, Cheeses, spinach mixture & red peppers in the pastry lined pan, repeat layers.
Place remaining puff pastry square on top, tuck in the pastry edges, pinch the edges together
Brush surface with reserved egg, pierce pastry several times.
Bake 45-55 minutes or until golden brown Cool 10 minutes before serving, run a knife around the edges
*If you wish to do this as a make ahead assemble & bake the pie. Cover & refridgerate several hours or overnight. When ready to serve Bake uncovered in 350F oven for 30-40 minutes.
