Ham and Egg Cups

A few months ago my sister sent me a picture of these breakfast cups that she had found online and let me know that we had to make them ASAP.  

How could I disagree? I love breakfast and they looked super easy, win-win!


Unfortunately it took us until about 2 weeks ago to finally get our butts in gear and give this dish a try.  Maybe it was the visit from Amy from Doyouknowthemuffinpan.com to inspire us to finally try this muffin-sized breakfast?

We didn't really follow any recipe, and I cannot find the original picture that inspired us, but after searching for the original picture I realized this recipe is everywhere, with very similar instructions!  People know better than to mess with something that is already perfected I guess!

These were incredibly easy to make, and crazy delicious. They also kept really well and we reheated them for breakfast the next morning at work, yum!  This recipe makes 8 servings, but you can make more or less very easily, just crack more or less eggs!  We ate these with some toasted english muffins and it was a perfect meal.

5. Remove the pan from the oven, sprinkle the cheese over each cup, and then cook for an additional 5 minutes or so
