Bacon-Wrapped Egg Muffin Cups

Bacon-Wrapped Egg Muffin Cups feature custardy baked eggs nestled in crisp bacon with pockets of diced ham and gooey mozzarella, then finished with a blanket of melted Gouda. The mix of smoky, salty, and creamy notes makes them especially satisfying for busy mornings or a brunch spread. Serve warm for a protein-packed start to the day.

Bacon-Wrapped Egg Muffin Cups
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning now and then, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes; drain the bacon slices on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Line 6 cups of a nonstick muffin tin with the bacon slices, then chop any remaining bacon slices and sprinkle them over the bottom of each cup.

  4. 4

    Whisk the eggs, milk, butter, parsley, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl, then stir in the ham and mozzarella cheese.

  5. 5

    Pour the egg mixture into the bacon-lined cups and top with the Gouda cheese.

  6. 6

    Bake in the preheated oven until the Gouda cheese is melted and the eggs are set, about 15 minutes.
