Canadian Bacon and Egg Cups Recipe

I love making hot breakfasts for the kids (especially because I love to eat hot breakfasts), but who has time to make a hot breakfast every morning? 

I definitely don't have the time, which is why I make savory several batches of breakfast muffins on the weekend so we can just heat them up every morning. 

Not too long ago I shared an easy Savory Breakfast Muffin Recipe, and here is another super easy recipe.

Simply put Canadian Bacon in each cup of a muffin tin and form a "cup" (I've used deli turkey and ham before in place of Canadian Bacon), scramble and egg in each cup, and top with cheddar cheese.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and they're done!

You can sprinkle on some parsley (pictured above) or chives for color.

I made 4 batches of these breakfast cups, and they store nicely in the freezer!

Next batch I'm going to try and add veggies - onions, spinach, and/or mushrooms.
