ENJOY EGG AND HAM MUFFIN CUPS  

Cook's Notes: These muffin cups are such a simple concept that can be prepared in 15 minutes. It looks fancy and elevates your standard egg and ham meal to a new level. You can make as many or as few as needed. I made two in a standard 6-cup muffin tin. These muffin cups would be perfect for brunch. 

Recipe from BHG Brunch and Breakfast 2021 Publication 

Ingredients: 

• Thin deli ham( I used  Black Forest)
• Large eggs
• Grated cheddar cheese
• Chopped (drained) tomatoes and/or bits of broccoli
• Salt and Pepper to taste
• Sprinkle of parsley flakes 
• Optional pesto

 Directions: 

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease the muffin tin wells for the number of muffin cups you are making. If only making a few, spread them out in the muffin tin. 
• Gently press a ham slice into each prepared muffin cup, carefully ruffling the edges of the ham as you place it inside. 
• Divide the grated cheese among the ham-lined muffin cups. Inside, ham is sprinkled with cheese, tomato, and broccoli if using, and a very small dollop of pesto. 
• Break an egg into each ham-lined muffin cup. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and parsley flakes.   

• Bake for 18 minutes, or until the whites are completely set and the yolks are thickened.
• Let the muffin cups stand for 3 minutes, then remove each cup carefully.
