Ingredients
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 180°C / 350°F and lightly grease a small baking dish or muffin tray.
- Press the ham slices into the dish, letting them form loose cups.
- Crack one egg into each ham cup, keeping the yolks intact.
- Sprinkle the cheese over the eggs, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Bake until the whites are just set and the yolks still soft, about 10–12 minutes.
- Let them rest for a minute before serving.
Typical mistakes (and how to avoid them)
- Overbaking: Eggs go from soft to dry fast. Pull them out when the whites are set — they’ll finish cooking from the heat.
- Too much salt: Ham and cheese already bring saltiness. Season gently.
- Thin ham slices: Very thin ham can tear. If it does, overlap two pieces slightly.
