Sweet Bread Ham Cups

I'm trying to cook and bake more, and really use up as much ingredients as I can from the pantry and fridge without letting them go to waste (I'm notorious for buying and forgetting about ingredients).

For a quick and easy anytime meal, I made Sweet Bread Ham Cups.

Simply take 12 slices of ham and place each into a cup in a prepared muffin tin, trying your best to form a bowl.

In a large bowl, combine 2 T melted butter with 2 cups milk (I used vanilla soy), 4 eggs, 4 T sugar, 2 t vanilla. 

I then took half a round loaf of sweet bread and tore it into 1-inch pieces.

I dumped all the bread pieces into the milk mixture, stirred everything up, and let it sit for 15 minutes. 

I then poured 1/4 cup of the bread mixture into each ham cup, and baked for 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 16 minutes.

They turned out quite yummy - a nice sweet and savory combo.  The kids loved them!

Next time I'm going to make an all-sweet or all-savory version!
