How to Make Huevos Rancheros In Muffin Cups

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Trim the edges of each tortilla to fit snugly into a muffin tin cup. You should have 8 cups.
  3. Lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with melted butter and sprinkle with salt.
  4. Press the tortillas into the muffin tin cups to form individual tortilla cups.
  5. In a small bowl, gently mix half the salsa (1/2 cup) with the black beans, salt, and pepper.
  6. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the black bean mixture into the bottom of each tortilla cup.
  7. Carefully crack one egg into each tortilla cup.
  8. Bake for 8 minutes, or until the egg whites are just set.
  9. Sprinkle each egg with shredded cheese.
  10. Cover the muffin tin with aluminum foil.
  11. Bake for an additional 6-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
  12. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before carefully removing the Huevos Rancheros from the muffin tin.
  13. Top with a dollop of sour cream and the remaining salsa before serving immediately.
