Serves: 8 crescent muffins
Ingredients
  • 1 tube seamless crescent roll dough
  • 2 oz ham, diced small
  • 3 oz part skim shredded mozzarella, divided
  • 3-4 eggs
  • salt and pepper
  • fresh chives (or green onion), to garnish
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375F. Lightly spray a muffin tin with cooking spray (we'll just be using 8 cups).
  2. Roll out the crescent dough and cut into 8 equal pieces. Working with one piece at a time, gently roll out or stretch the dough into a thin square. Press the square into the bottom of the muffin tin. Some dough will overhang the cup. Repeat with the remaining pieces of dough.
  3. Divide the diced ham and 2 oz of the cheese equally into the bottom of the muffin cups.
  4. Place eggs into a measuring cup with a pour spout. Whisk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper. (I only needed 3 eggs to fill my cups but it's possible you could need 4 eggs total). Pour a little of the egg mixture into each muffin cup, leaving at least ¼ inch space at the top.
  5. Bake muffins for 10 minutes and then loosely cover the top with foil (making sure the foil is not touching the egg). Bake for another 5 minutes. Remove foil and sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1 oz of shredded cheese. Bake another 2 minutes or so, until cheese is melted, watching carefully so that the edges don't become too brown.
  6. Remove from oven and allow to sit at least 5 minutes before removing the muffins. Top with fresh chives and enjoy!
