Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line two 12-hole flat-based patty pans with paper cases or pieces of baking paper. Heat the oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Cook onion and bacon, stirring, for 5 mins or until browned. Add garlic and thyme and cook, stirring, for 2 mins or until aromatic. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and set aside to cool.
Step 2
Add the cheddar, fetta and half the chives to bacon mixture and gently stir to combine. Divide evenly among the prepared pans. Whisk the ricotta and eggs in a medium jug. Pour over the bacon mixture and top with tomato.
Step 3
Bake for 20-25 mins or until the egg mixture is just set. Set aside for 5 mins to cool before transferring to a serving platter. Sprinkle with remaining chives. Serve warm or at room temperature.
