Quick and easy breakfast cups

SCMBA - Self-contained morning breakfast apparatus.
That's what these breakfast cups end up being, and I make them all the time. They're easy, delicious, and have the perfect balance of what we call Swavery. Sweet/savory.

You should try them ASAP.



 Sunday breakfast cups 
For each breakfast cup you will need:

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 slice bacon
  • 1 large slice bread, or 2 smaller slices
  • Half slice of your cheese of choice... we go with cheddar a lot of the time
  • Drizzle of maple syrup
Here's the slightly tricky part. In a large muffin tin (the kind that makes 6 big muffins), spray the muffin holes you're using with non stick spray. Using a cup that juuuuust fits into the bottom of the tin, cut out a circle of bread. Place into the bottom of the muffin hole. Take the slice of bacon and wrap it around the inside of the muffin hole, making a cup for the egg. Crack the egg into the hole. Top with a second round of bread, this one a little bigger. Drizzle on some maple syrup, and top with pieces of cheese. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes (for an egg cooked all the way through) or 18 minutes for a more squishy type egg.

Enjoy!
