Baked egg and ham cups

By Dustin

Even though I have had some rough egg experiences lately…the century egg, and little birdie fetus…I have not given up on one of my favorite foods. While eggs can be made to taste more disgusting than I ever thought possible, they can also be creamy, protein packed perfection and in the case of the baked egg cup, they are just that!

Ingredients

• 12 Eggs
• 12 thin slices of deli ham (round)
• 1/2 Cup of your favorite cheese (I used Parmesan)
• 1/2 Cup diced scallions
• Fresh cracked Sea Salt and Pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400.  Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.  Lay a piece of ham in each hole creating a little ham cup.  Crack one egg into each hole and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Bake the eggs for about 12 minutes…until the white is firm and the yolk is still nice and runny.

Carefully remove each egg from the muffin tin and top with grated cheese and scallions.  Serve hot!
