BAKED EGGS IN HAM CUPS

Categories     Egg     Brunch     Bake     Muffin

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

• 1 teaspoon unsalted butter, for the tins
• Four round ham slices (the largest you can find at the deli)
• 1 teaspoon pesto, homemade or store-bought
• 8 large eggs
• Eight 3/4-inch cubes fresh mozzarella
• 4 cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter four compartments of a metal muffin tin. Fold each ham slice into quarters, insert the point end in a buttered muffin cup, and let it open - it will have a ruffled look. Place 1 teaspoon pesto in the bottom of each ham cup, then carefully crack 2 eggs into each cup. (Sometimes I crack my eggs into a pitcher with a pour spout or into a small paper cup and pour them into the ham cup from there.) Tuck 2 mozzarella cubes and two cherry tomato halves into each cup on top of the eggs, and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. (Remember that the ham and pesto both lend saltiness to the dish.) Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the egg white looks set but the yolk is still a bit runny. Remove the ham cups from the muffin tin and serve them in small bowls or lined up on a platter.

BAKED EGG IN HAM CUPS WITH PARMESAN AND GREEN ONION



Baked Egg in Ham Cups With Parmesan and Green Onion image

You don't have to wait until a special occasion, make these for your breakfast tomorrow. I entered the recipe as 1 egg so you can easily scale it to just the number you need. If serving a crowd, use your muffin tin/silpat. Just 1 or a few use a ramekin or silpat cup. Add other things to the cup as the spirit moves you!

BAKED EGGS IN HAM CUPS



Baked Eggs in Ham Cups image

This dish is easy to make but very attractive. Lining muffin tins with ham serves two purposes. It creates an edible container for the eggs and it adds flavor. You can substitute any kind of cheese for the mozzarella if you want a stronger cheese flavor. Using fresh mozzarella make this a authentic Italian dish, but its flavor it...

Provided by Lynnda Cloutier

Categories     Eggs

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tsp. unsalted butter for the tins
four 1/16 inch thick round ham slices, the largest you can find at the deli
1 tsp. pesto, homemade or store bought
8 large eggs
eight 3/4 inch cubes fresh mozzarella
4 cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 375. Butter 4 compartments of metal muffin tin. Fold each ham slice into quarters, insert the point end in a buttered muffin cup and let it open. It will have a ruffled look. Put 1/4 tsp. pesto in bottom of each ham cup, then carefully crack 2 eggs into each cup. Sometimes it's easier to crack the eggs into a pitcher with a pour spout first or into a small paper cup and pour them into the ham cup from there. Tuck 2 mozzarella cubes and two cherry tomato halves into each cup on top of the eggs, and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Remember that the ham and pest both lend saltiness to the dish. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes til the egg white looks set but the yolk is still a bit runny. Remove ham cups from muffin tin and serve them in small bowls or lined up on a platter. Serves 4

Tips:

  • Select the right ham: Choose a thickly sliced, high-quality ham that will hold its shape when baked. Look for a ham that is at least 1/2-inch thick.
  • Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will give you the best results. If you're not sure if your eggs are fresh, crack them into a bowl before adding them to the ham cups. If the egg white is cloudy or the yolk is broken, discard the egg.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
  • Serve immediately: Baked eggs in ham cups are best served immediately. If you need to make them ahead of time, you can cook them according to the recipe and then reheat them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes.

Conclusion:

Baked eggs in ham cups are a quick and easy breakfast or brunch recipe that's perfect for special occasions or everyday meals. They're also a great way to use up leftover ham. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying dish that the whole family will love.
