I start each summer off with high hopes and big plans. We make summer “bucket lists” – essentially outlining the fun things we want to do before summer ends. In reality, I spend the last one to two weeks of summer cramming in as much activity as I can so I don’t suffer the post-summer mama guilt that seems to haunt me at the end of each and every summer.
To try to make up for my lack of ability to actually check off every item on our summer bucket list, I start each school year being super on top of things at breakfast time. There’s no cereal, bagels or pop tarts… only home cooked, hot of the stove or out of the oven breakfasts. This lasts for, oh, about one week then we are back to our typical grab whatever you can and rush out the door mornings. Tell me you can relate… please!
I make a version of these handy little egg cups wrapped in bacon, but thought I’d try them without the bacon and instead adding a little bit of chopped ham. Friends… these are so incredibly easy, I promise. Send your kids off with these delicious, breakfast goodies in their bellies and you’ll feel like a parent who has their stuff together, even if you are only faking it.

Recipe: Ham and Egg Breakfast Cups
These can be placed in the refrigerator after they are baked and reheated in the microwave for a quick and easy breakfast on the run!
- 12 eggs
- 1 cup chopped deli ham
- 2 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
- salt and pepper, to taste
- Preheat oven to 350°
- Spray a muffin pan generously with Pam cooking spray
- Crack one egg into each hole of the muffin pan, using a fork to gently break the yolk.
- Sprinkle each egg with ham, salt, cracked black pepper and cheese.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- Pop out of muffin tins and serve.
You’re a super-mom! These sound great, and your kids are so lucky to be treated to home-cooked meals!
Ok the fact that you just crack and egg in a muffin pan and bake for 350 for 20 mins..this is a newsflash to me! After years of being vegan, I cook/bake with eggs every so rarely again these days but am not clued into egg recipes…lol
Post summer mama guilt…I have that on Sunday evenings…post weekend guilt that I didnt do enough. Us mama’s…it always something, isnt it.
Delish!! I would probably prefer the ham to the bacon, they sound so flavorful. I have a hard time with hearty breakfasts in the morning before I head out to work…I always end up spending way too much time on Twitter so I don’t end up making anything!
With school starting back, I’ve been playing with simple breakfast recipes for the past few weeks for those crazy mornings. This one looks yum!
Ooooo this is RIGHT up my alley, Kristen! I’m gonna make these this week, if I can regain vision after looking at the glory.
Can you be MY mom? These looks perfect!
Hahahaha…I can TOTALLY relate!! But Jon David won’t eat breakfast that early, so I end up begging and I’m lucky if I can get him out the door with a piece of sausage or some cubed cheese.
These look fabulous!! Definitely on my “to do” list.
I love these! I have no kids but will be making these for myself!
yum…i love the idea of having these in the frig to heat up in the morning. Thanks for this idea.
These look and sound delicious Kristen! My girls will eat them, as long as I get up and cook them! lol…….you’re a GREAT Mom
oh I do the same things and my kids eat frosted flakes and carnation instant breakfast! We still have a few weeks of summer left, so I will definitely make these!!
These look mighty delicious and I sure love simple and fast recipes like this!
That’s an awesome idea. Beats an Egg McMuffin by a mile!
Oh, I like this idea! I think they might freeze well for me to grab on the fly. I’m going to try lining the muffin cups with a 1/2 slice of prosciutto…
You. Are. Genius. I adore this. I am SOOOOO making them! Thanks for the great recipe and inspiration!
Oooooo! This is so
Yummy looking my mouth is
Watering with breakfast envy right now!
Glad I bought more eggs this week! Thanks again for
Sharing ! Such a Mom thing which is a
GOOD thing!
Love this idea, and not just for kid’s breakfast. I feel a brunch coming on……
PS – Do you think you could do these one at a time in the microwave?
you can, just make sure to break the yolk! And if you scramble it (I usually do when microwaving because the yolk can get rubbery) they puff waaay up.
I have seen recipes like this, and I have yet to try it. I think I’ll try it with your recipe . . . my kids love eggs (most of the time). And, this seems too easy to be real. Can’t wait. Wrapping in bacon. Um, YUM. Might have to try that, too!
thanks!
Having eaten these at your house, my question is, could you substitute sausage for the chopped ham for your little sausage lover? I didn’t realize these were so easy to prepare. I’ll be trying them!
This look so very good. Not a child one in this house, but I would love them. Your little story about the beginning of school reminds me of when I was a new bride many, many years ago. Wanting to be a good wife I embarked on a campaign to make breakfasts from scratch for my new hubby. About three weeks in, he asked that I please stop. He just wasn’t a breakfast person, and he isn’t till this day except on rare occasions. I think these would be good with some browned up sausage, too.
Oh thank you! I, too, have that never-ending Mama guilt! Hopefully these little breakfast cups will help mine as well! 🙂
Has anyone tried freezing them? If so, how well did they reheat?
Love these little breakfast cups…all that protein and a little fat starts the day off right.
“Tell me you can relate… please!” Yes I can.
What a tasty way to start the day. Really like the easy factor of this!
YAHHOO!!!!! An easy recipe that I can do here ! Thanks K …
These are being made TOMORROW morning!!!
Yummy! We are both thinking back-to-school breakfast this AM!
Looks delicious and super simple for school mornings! Thanks
Kristen…I am the SAME way! I start off the school year so good…pancakes and waffles, and muffins, etc. By the 3rd week, cereal has made it into the rotation. 😉
THESE look so good! How smart…eggs in a muffin tin! I love it! Thank you for the great idea!
You are ahead of me. I have been up since 4 am, and I still fed the big and middle littles cereal, leftover pancakes, and juice for breakfast. You have inspired me, though, as usual, and I cannot wait to try this recipe!
I really need to make these. My husband heads into work at 2:30am and I *hate* that he always wants to grab a Poptart for breakfast. This is a much healthier alternative!
Yum! Love this whole breakfast cup idea… I was just sitting here thinking that I had no idea what to make for breakfast tomorrow morning. Have to give this a try!
I’m impressed that you get to the list stage – no lists and nothing to do! I love these breakfast treats – i’m calling them bacon and egg cakes and serving them up to my kids on their first day of school – which for me isn’t until after labor day – they miss the first 3 days cos I’m in England for my sister’s wedding…
This sounds amazing!! All my favorite things ham, egg and cheese!! Yum!
My little guy will love this. He’s the odd kid out because he doesn’t like cereal but loves eggs.
These are so creative and so delish looking!
Kristen, the boys and I totally made a list at the beginning of the summer– and now I don’t want Noah to find it because we’ve only done one or two things!
Still, it’s been a great summer.
And my boys would love these breakfast cups. Thanks!
I’m not ready for the end of summer… I’m not at all. Too many things I still want to do.
This beautiful breakfast is exactly what I love to consume on weekend mornings. Beautiful presentation and the shots are stunning
These are so delicious!! I tried them with bacon instead of ham, and added some onions (I dont know why I love onions so much). I even made a few extra to last through the week ^_^ Thanks for sharing these!
Mommy guilt will get ya every time!
These little beauties are just what I’m carving at the moment. 🙂
WOW! These look absolutely amazing! And so easy! I know what we’re having for breakfast in the morning!
Great recipe. This would be great for people that are on the run and don’t have time for a sit down breakfast.
those look delish. i may have to make those this weekend. BTW, I got very little done on my summer bucket list this summer. It’s just so easy to become “lazy”!
I made these this morning with precooked bacon b/c that is what i had on hand. They were GREAT and EASY and cooked while i bathed my 3 y/o. AND…best of all…she ate them!
I saw these on pinterest and am baking them this morning using sausage. So excited to taste them! Thanks!
I’ve been meaning to try this recipe for a LONG time … well, since you posted it! I’m making it tomorrow for my kids AND for my MOPS group. Hopefully they are all going to love me for it.
Thanks for the yummy inspiration!
Oooh love ham instead of bacon. Sounds yummy-tastic!
If you are from the north , Taylor ham works great as well
I will be making these for one of our “breakfast for lunch” days for daycare! And, by the way, my kids may be jealous that your kids had ANY hot weekday breakfasts. I love to eat breakfast-type foods, just can’t manage them for breakfast unless it’s a weekend! I taught my kids at a young age how to manage their own breakfasts and weekend lunches. I know, lazy mom! 🙂
