Prosciutto Spinach And Egg Pies Recipe

These savory Prosciutto, Spinach, and Egg Pies are a delightful twist on a classic breakfast or brunch recipe! This Sarah Foster-inspired recipe is easily doubled to fill a 12-cup muffin tin. Imagine flaky prosciutto cups filled with creamy eggs, vibrant spinach, and sharp cheddar, all baked to perfection. For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a swirl of pesto before adding the eggs. Fontina cheese would also be a delicious substitute for the cheddar. Remember that prosciutto is salty, so adjust seasoning accordingly. Leftovers are amazing the next day! Feel free to swap in pre-cooked bacon for a smoky alternative.

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly spray a 6-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.

  4. Crack 1 large egg into each prepared muffin cup.
  5. Evenly divide 1 cup of fresh spinach over the eggs.
  6. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the spinach.
  7. Top each pie with 2-4 halved cherry or grape tomatoes.
  8. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper (remember prosciutto is salty!).
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still slightly soft. Cooking time may vary depending on your oven.
  10. Let the pies cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes.
