SAN DIEGO — These ham and egg crowns are perfect for brunch or breakfast. It's also a recipe that is a little different and keeps you out of the kitchen.
Ham & Egg Crowns
- 12 slices of ham
- 1 dozen eggs
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
- Kosher salt
- Black pepper, fresh ground
- Italian parsley, chopped
- Muffin tin
- Cooking spray
- Cupcake tin
- Sourdough Bread
- Butter
Preheat your oven to 400°.
Spray the cupcake tin with cooking spray and arrange the sliced ham so it covers the bottom, sides and comes out the top. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of cheese, pressing it into the bottom and making sure there's room for the egg. Crack the egg inside the ham, season with salt and pepper and place in the oven.
Don't open the oven for at least 10 minutes and check at the 10 to 12 minute mark to see how well cooked the eggs are. The last few minutes happen fast so keep an eye on the eggs, you can use your finger to see how soft they are.
Have your toast ready to go so you can serve the eggs as soon as they come out of the oven. Top them off with some chopped Italian parsley.
