Classic Ham & Cheese Egg Bites
Prep Time:10 minutes
Cook Time:15 minutes
Total Time:35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 ½ tbsp olive oil divided
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ¾ cup diced ham
  • 1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese divided
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place a muffin tin on a baking sheet and set aside.
  • Heat a medium skillet over medium heat with ½ tablespoon olive oil. Add the diced ham and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until lightly browned. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • Generously grease the muffin tin with the remaining oil.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs until fully combined and slightly frothy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
  • With the mixer on low, beat in the Greek yogurt until smooth. Add the salt, pepper, onion powder, and paprika, and mix until evenly combined.
  • Stir in ¾ cup of the shredded cheese.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the muffin tin, filling each cup about halfway.
  • Evenly distribute the cooked ham on top, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Gently tap the pan to settle the mixture.
  • Carefully pour hot water into the baking sheet until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the muffin tin to create a water bath.
  • Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the centers are set.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the tin. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
