Mini Savoury Egg Cakes

These mini morsels are super easy to make and are delicious served warm or at room temperature alongside drinks at a party or can be eaten with salad for a quick light lunch. I have used ham, cheese and spring onion but there are loads of variations you could make. Experiment with your favourite foods and come up with your own creations.

Splash of milk
1 large handful of grated cheese

Method

Prep time: 5 mins Cook time: 15 mins

Preheat the oven to 190°C, 170°C fan, gas mark 5.

Grease a non-stick mini muffin tray. Add the salt, pepper and all the other ingredients to a bowl with the beaten eggs. Mix and divide the mixture evenly between the 12 holes, filling each one to the brim.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool a little in the tray before lifting out onto a plate to serve.

You could add, cooked bacon, cooked chorizo, fresh herbs – the options are endless.
