Cast Iron Baked Eggs

Last time we past the Lodge Outlet factory I picked up 6 inch mini cast iron pans with the thought of making individual servings of upside down cakes and other decadent desserts.  Yeah, that has not happened yet. However, I did manage to make a pretty yummy breakfast.

Ingredients

2 Large Eggs
Precooked sliced ham (can substitute with any other cooked meat)
1 tbs butter
1 tbs heavy cream
salt & pepper to taste







Preheat oven 350 degrees
On stove top melt butter. Turn off heat and layer precooked sliced ham on the bottom of the pan.  Top with 2 large eggs.  Sprinkle 1 tbs heavy cream over the eggs and bake for about 6 to 12 minutes.  You want to make sure that the egg whites are completely cooked so it may take more time. Also Tim likes his yolks not to be runny so he cooked his a little longer.    Top with salt and pepper.  Light on the salt because the Ham tends to be pretty salty to begin with.  I like to add a little red chili pepper for color.
