Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°.

Coat the outside of six 6-oz. custard cups with nonstick spray. Brush both sides of tortillas with 1 Tbsp. oil; season with salt. Line 6 cups of a jumbo muffin tin with tortillas; press prepared custard cups inside to set the shape. Bake tortilla cups until beginning to brown, 20 minutes, rotating halfway through.

Remove muffin tin from oven; increase temperature to 425°.

Meanwhile, sweat onion and poblano in remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a saucepan over medium heat until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in garlic and oregano; cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add tomatillos; cook until they begin to release their liquid. Add pinto beans, black beans, and broth. Cook and mash beans and tomatillos with a potato masher until fairly smooth; stir in zest and season with salt.

Remove custard cups from tortilla cups. Scoop 1/2 cup bean mixture into each tortilla cup; top each with 2 Tbsp. cheese and bake until cheese melts, 5 minutes. Crack an egg into each tortilla cup; bake until egg whites are set, 15 minutes.

Top Huevos Rancheros Cups with avocado and serve with Pico de Gallo Verde.
