Instructions

    1.
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 6-count muffin tin with cooking spray. Finely dice the ham and distribute it evenly in the bottoms of the muffin tins. Top with 1/2 tablespoon of shredded cheddar per muffin tin.
    2.
    Whisk together the egg with the remaining ingredients. Pour the mixture evenly into each muffin tin, filling each one about halfway.
    3.
    Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the eggs are set. Allow to cool slightly before removing from the muffin tins. The egg may rise during baking but will settle to "muffin top" size while cooling.
