Do you remember Egg Cups?

[luvnit]

I can't find my recipe and I know I posted this 3-4 years ago. I know Jean made the recipe using the sandwich thins in a jumbo muffin tin. (I am sure she remembers

Anyway it was a baked egg in a muffin tin. I think I had to roll out sliced bread, but not sure. I have seen recipes with wonton skins too. The recipe I had though had brie, basil, and also a thyme and parm. Not sure what meats, ham, proscuitto?

I have tried searching. Maybe someone else is better at searching than I am?

If you don't need them for breakfast, I'll look in a couple hours, Laura. Oh, breakfast is over for you, isn't it? will look.

Here is a version I saw a couple of months ago on Noble Pig.

Thanks Trixxee. I love the Noble Pig site. That looks like a good one too.

If you think of it Jean, and you saved it, that would be great. I liked that recipe a lot. I must have thrown out the magazine, or loaned it to someone I remembered you used the jumbo muffin tin. I just bought one this weekend and wanted to make them in the larger muffin tin.

Otherwise, I will start with Trixxee's and work on some variations.

Thanks!
