Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly grease a muffin tin or place silicone muffin cups on a baking sheet.

- Spoon the beaten egg mixture evenly over the ham in each muffin cup.
- Cut the 1/4 avocado into small chunks and distribute them evenly among the muffin cups.
- Grate or cut the mozzarella cheese into small pieces and sprinkle it evenly over each cupcake.
- Place the muffin tin or silicone cups in the preheated oven.
- Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool for a minute or two before removing them from the tin or cups.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips:
- Use silicone cupcake liners or grease your muffin tin well to prevent sticking.
- Feel free to add other ingredients such as chopped spinach, bell peppers, or onions for extra flavor and nutrients.
