How To Make breakfast cupcake

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F., and lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Mix the first seven ingredients together in a large bowl. (Substitute bacon or sausage for the ham, if preferred)
Step 3

Spoon potato mixture into each prepared muffin cup until about 1/3 full. Gently press the potato mixture down in the middle and up the sides of each cup.
Step 4

Bake until golden brown, about 25-30 minutes. If the nests have puffed up too much in the center, scoop out a little with a teaspoon.
Step 5

Spoon a few tablespoons of scramble eggs into each nest and top with chives.
