Paleo Muffin Tin Baked Eggs in Ham

September 11, 2012 by Julie 2 Comments

PaleomuffintineggsPaleo Muffin Tin Baked Eggs in Ham

This is one of my favorite new recipes because it’s easy, it’s delicious and it’s perfectly portioned.  I make them over the weekend and store the leftovers in the refrigerator. I give them a quick reheat and  enjoy the egg cups for the next couple of days.  For less than 300 calories, the nearly 20 grams high-quality protein and fat really work together to keep you satisfied for hours.

Ingredients

  • 8 slices of lean Canadian bacon
  • 8 eggs
  • 1/2 cup chopped scallions
  • Pepper to taste

Directions

Lightly coat eight muffin tins with olive oil. Place 1 slice ham into each muffin tins (fold into fours to make the ham ruffle.) Crack one egg into each cup; and sprinkle each egg with pepper.baked-eggs-in-ham

Bake in a 375-degree preheated oven for 12-15 minutes till the white looks set but the egg is set and yolk is still slightly runny.  Top with chopped scallions and serve.

 

Servings: 4 (2 baked eggs is one serving)

For another great Paleo-inspired high-pro breakfast, try my protein pancakes recipes made with eggs, nut butter and bananas.

A great site for more healthy, high-protein recipes is Everyday Paleo. Because a protein-rich breakfast may help curb hunger throughout the day, check out some of their breakfast recipes.

    How many days do usually keep the eggs after cooking? I also enjoy a slightly runny yolk, but am concerned with health risks of storing them after cooked.
