Prepare quick, single-serving egg cups with Caprese flavors using only your microwave in five minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk or water
  • 1 tablespoon diced fresh tomato
  • 1 tablespoon small mozzarella balls (pearls), halved
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of black pepper

Instructions

  1. Lightly grease two standard microwave-safe ramekins or large mug bottoms.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk (or water), salt, and pepper until combined.
  3. Divide the diced tomato, halved mozzarella balls, and chopped basil evenly between the two prepared ramekins.
  4. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings in each ramekin, distributing it equally.
  5. Microwave on high for 60 to 90 seconds, or until the eggs are set. Cooking time varies by microwave power. Check at 60 seconds.
  6. Let the cups cool for one minute before carefully removing them from the ramekins. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use small ramekins or silicone muffin molds designed for microwave use for best results.
  • If your eggs are not fully set after 90 seconds, microwave in 10-second increments until done.
  • For easier removal, line the ramekins with a small piece of parchment paper before greasing.
