I made this simple breakfast dish for overnight guests in early February. Unfortunately, they had to leave before they could be oven-ready so I popped them into the nuker and presto, done in three minutes! They are super easy to put together the morning of, but I wanted even less kitchen time so I assembled them the night before. To bake quickly, allow them to come to room temperature for an hour before you bake them.
Ham and Cheese Egg Cups
A KitchenInspirations Original Recipe
Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- 200 g of cooked ham
- 200 g of grated cheese, divided
- 50 g of tiny broccoli florets
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Spray each ramekin with non-stick spray.
- Break the eggs into a medium bowl snd whisk well to break the yolks and combine with the whites.
- Add the ham and broccoli florets and mix well. Add the cheese, reserving a small amount to garnish the tops.
- Divide the mixture evenly between the four prepped ramekins. Garnish with reserved cheese.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Or you can nuke them for 3 minutes on high.
- Allow ramekins to sit for about 5 minutes before serving. Option to serve: Carefully turn out each egg cup onto a warm plate and turn right-side-up. Serve warm.

Winter has come. But the weather has been really strange because as soon as we have any snow accumulation, it warms up, the rains come and the snow melts.
Notes:
Inclusions are limitless:
- Smoked salmon, capers, red onion slices, cream cheese.
- Cooked shredded chicken, roasted red pepper cubes, avocado cubes, sliced onions, roasted corn, shredded jalapeño jack cheese, served with salsa.
- Roast pork tenderloin, sluced red onions, sliced black olives, roasted red pepper and greek feta served with Tzatziki sauce.
The nuker to the rescue! (brings a great rise too) — egg cups are so quick and satisfying – so many ways to change up the flavors too; haven’t made them in ages, thank you for the reminder. I usually pop them into a muffin tin but your ramekins are way prettier 🙂
