How to Make Baked Eggs And Ham
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a shallow 2-cup baking dish.
- Add 1/4 cup croutons, 1/4 cup diced ham, and 1 tablespoon butter to the prepared baking dish. Toss gently to combine.
- Carefully crack 2 large eggs on top of the ham and crouton mixture.
- Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese).
- Bake uncovered for 15-18 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness. The whites should be set, and the yolks may be runny or firm depending on preference.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with fresh fruit (like berries or sliced avocado) if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
