Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 6-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray, making sure the spray coats all sides of the cup. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Cut each ham slice in half and gently press one piece into each muffin cup, creating a nest or basket shape. Sprinkle a small amount of Gruyere cheese evenly across the bottom of each ham-lined cup. (5 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

In a measuring cup or small bowl, crack the eggs. Add the milk, torn basil, chopped chives, salt, and pepper. Whisk thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and slightly frothy. (3 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Carefully pour the egg mixture evenly into each muffin cup, filling each to about three-quarters full. (2 minutes)

05

Step
25 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the egg cups are set and lightly golden, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. (25 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Remove the muffin pan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Use a spoon or spatula to gently slide the ham and egg cups out of the muffin pan and onto a serving plate. Serve warm and enjoy! (5 minutes)

For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
Feel free to substitute other cheeses like cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella based on your preference.
These cups can be made ahead of time and reheated for a quick breakfast during the week.

    The ham was a bit salty, I will try using less salty ham next time or maybe some bacon."
