Ingredients

• 6 slices Sliced deli ham
• 6 pieces Large eggs
• 0.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a standard 6-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 3

Carefully line each muffin cup with one slice of deli ham. Press the ham gently to form a 'cup' shape, ensuring the edges slightly overlap the sides of the muffin tin.

Step 4

Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese into the bottom of each ham cup.

Step 5

Crack one egg into each ham-lined muffin cup, taking care not to break the yolk.

Step 6

Season each egg with a small pinch of salt and ground black pepper.

Step 7

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 8

Carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven. Let the ham egg cups cool for 1-2 minutes before running a butter knife around the edges to loosen them.

Step 9

Gently lift each ham egg cup out of the tin and transfer to a serving plate.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
