Hash Brown Egg Cups
Description
This recipe creates individual hash brown cups by first sautéing diced onions in butter until tender, then mixing them with grated leftover baked potatoes, additional butter, beaten egg, salt, and pepper. The mixture is pressed evenly into buttered jumbo muffin tins, forming a cup shape on the bottom and sides. Baking at 400°F crisps the edges and surface until dark golden brown.
After slightly cooling, the cups are filled with scrambled eggs, providing a soft, creamy interior encased in a crunchy potato crust. The interplay of textures and savory flavors makes these ideal for a filling morning meal.
The cups can be served warm and are convenient for portion control. Using leftover baked potatoes maximizes efficiency, and the method allows customization with additional seasonings or fillings if desired.
