Wow easy to make! It's like poached eggs in the oven. Very tasty, serve with toast, fruit and voila'... breakfast in a dash. If you like soft poached leave in oven for about 15-20 minutes, 25 minutes for hard poached. I could see skipping the cheese and making a hollandaise sauce to put over before serving.<\/p>","CommentId":5,"DateRated":"01\/04\/2015 11:05","GUID":"85FE15D06A0B57B5CC5EBDC6D8D7A100","MemberId":198468,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"DragonSlayersRosebud","SubmittedDate":"01\/04\/2015 11:05"},{"Comment":"

Quick and easy! Nice to pop in the oven with something else and forget about breakfast for 20 minutes. I used ham and it was yummy, the exposed edges did get crispy but not enough to matter.

I put my own twist on this recipe today and it turned out great!<\/p>
My family likes scrambled eggs. Thus, I scrambled 6 eggs, salt, pepper, little milk, and one large tablespoon of cottage cheese. This lightens up the heaviness of the eggs (lower fat).<\/p>
I also used thinly sliced ham and processes cheese slices.<\/p>
One suggestion: I noted that the sliced ham edges burned. Next time I will cover with foil for the first half of baking time and then uncover to allow for crisping.<\/p>
I would definitely make this recipe again!<\/p>","CommentId":19,"DateRated":"08\/11\/2012 11:11","GUID":"a99ba284f11b40688165bdbc96ae2e0f","MemberId":1306631,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Sillyman1","SubmittedDate":"08\/11\/2012 11:11"},{"Comment":"
I never thought of putting eggs to this use before! Instead of using sliced roast beef, I used sliced ham instead. Tastes just as good! I also added a sprinkle of cheese on top- delicious! This makes a cute and simple breakfast or even a light supper! For a variation, try whisking the egg, some cheese, salt and pepper and pour into "meat cup".<\/p>","CommentId":20,"DateRated":"11\/27\/2011 20:49","GUID":"68a61d3794df491d9f8ec0561a8e5153","MemberId":6324211,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"1275","SubmittedDate":"11\/27\/2011 20:49"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":21,"DateRated":"11\/12\/2011 12:17","GUID":"0825f840d193447595373455c94cc9b6","MemberId":3056121,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"mitzerbitzer","SubmittedDate":"11\/12\/2011 12:17"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":22,"DateRated":"05\/26\/2011 10:53","GUID":"3418B682A50245009E7F1FB7AD759AAD","MemberId":4369472,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"2princesses2luv","SubmittedDate":"05\/26\/2011 10:53"},{"Comment":"

This was very good. I baked them at 350 degrees for 20 minutes and they came out fine. Just be sure the ham or whatever you choose to put on the bottom extends above the rim of the muffin tin as it is a bit difficult to remove them if you don't do that (as I found out).

i used this recipe for a Sunday morning meeting of my Dispatch Center and would never do so again. the eggs looked great but were hard cooked with an almost plastic like film over the top that could be peeled off. they looked as lovely as your picture but were almost un-edible - if i had time and money to waste i would experiment but i think 20-25 minutes was too long and the temp too high perhaps for eggs.<\/p>","CommentId":35,"DateRated":"05\/19\/2010 02:27","GUID":"365e9c6d338a471b9ec5d80ab2399b85","MemberId":1498034,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"mary robertson","SubmittedDate":"05\/19\/2010 02:27"},{"Comment":"
What a great base idea for so many variations. I took sliced turkey, roast beef and ham, mixed and matched different variations using whole eggs or scrambled and variations of cheese as well. I ended up with 12 different cups in one tray. I even varied the spices I put on top of them. I did this for Mothers Day for my wife, sister-in-law and Brother in law.
