Method
  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  2. Slightly flatten bread with a rolling pin to make shaping easier.
  3. Spread margarine thinly on one side of the bread.
  4. Press bread slices into muffin tins (margarine side down).
  5. Divide your choice of fillings evenly between the bread cases.
  6. Whisk eggs and milk together in a mixing bowl.
  7. Pour the egg mixture on top of the fillings. Sprinkle with black pepper.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes or until the cases are golden and the egg is set.
Notes

Try these filling combinations:

  • Gated zucchini, chopped tomato and grated cheese
  • Sliced ham and crushed pineapple
  • Baked beans and grated cheese
  • Frozen corn kernels, sliced ham and diced red onion
  • Sliced mushroom, sliced spring onion and chopped spinach 

This recipe is a great way of using up stale bread. You can use tortillas instead of bread if you have them.
