- Cooking spray
- 12 large slices deli ham look for uncured, all-natural ham; avoid the honey ham for this recipe
- 12 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.
Line each muffin cup with 1-2 slices of ham.
Crack one egg into each muffin cup. (Optional: You can also scramble the eggs with a splash of milk in a separate bowl before adding to the muffin tins, if you prefer scrambled eggs.)
Top each egg with 2 tablespoons of cheese.
Bake for 15-17 minutes, until the egg is set in the middle. Let cool slightly and enjoy!
- Muffin Pan Recommendation: We highly recommend making these in a silicone pan, silicone muffin liners, or a non-stick enamel pan. They come out easily and clean-up is a cinch. However, when we’ve tested these in metal pans (even after spraying with cooking spray), the pan is terribly difficult to clean.
- To spice these up, add in a few dashed of hot sauce to the egg mixture.
