I am sooooo excited that the holidays are almost here. I absolutely love the feeling in the air when October hits and that feeling just continues until after the New Year. I will be sharing some of my favorite holiday ideas, recipes, and crafts over the next couple of months so I hope that you will follow me. Today I am sharing my super easy Ham and Egg cups. These are perfect for any morning. When my children were younger they were super picky, that hasn't changed to much but they are trying new things...finally. This recipe was one way that I could get them to eat ham or eggs. It is completely versatile and can be changed or adapted to suit your taste buds.
Ham and Egg Cups
Ham slices - (I use Black Forest Ham from the deli, you need to have enough to use 2 slices per cup you would like to make. If they are too thick it will crack)
Cheese
Eggs
Salt and pepper
Melted butter (about 2 tablespoons)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Take one Muffin Tin and butter the bottom and sides of each cup you will be using
Use 2 slices per cup and put them in the cup crisscrossed so each area is covered (this can be a bit easier if the ham is not straight from the fridge or microwaved for a few seconds.
Put a bit of cheese in the bottom of each cup
Crack an egg into each cup and top with a bit of salt and pepper (I am not the best at egg cracking so I crack them in a bowl and gently move them to the ham cup)
Bake them for about 15 to 20 minutes or until set to your liking.
This can be modified -
If you like your eggs scrambled you can mix them up before putting them in the cups.
For a southwestern flavor...use mexican cheese on the bottom and use diced green chiles in the scrambled eggs.
It is all up to you. This recipe can also be frozen once made. Just microwave them for about a minute when reheating.
Enjoy...and share pictures of your modifications on my twitter or instagram feed. It is always fun to see what others do.
