Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 8 slices prosciutto or ham
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (Swiss, cheddar, or gouda)
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, diced
- 1/2 cup baby spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup mini salami slices or cooked bacon bits
- 2 tbsp fresh herbs (chives, parsley, or basil), chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Cooking spray or butter, for greasing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard muffin tin with cooking spray or butter.
- Line each muffin well with a slice of prosciutto or ham, letting edges rise above the rim to form a cup.
- Add a pinch of shredded cheese, a few cherry tomato pieces, chopped spinach, and mini salami or bacon bits to each cup.
- Whisk eggs with salt and pepper until frothy. Pour into each cup until nearly full. Tap the tray to settle ingredients.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes or until eggs are set and edges are golden. Cool slightly before removing from tin.
Notes
- Top with fresh herbs or a dollop of crème fraîche before serving.
- Can be served warm or at room temperature—great for meal prep or brunch spreads.
- Experiment with fillings like sautéed mushrooms, roasted peppers, or different cheeses for variation.
