• 2 heat the oven to 375 degrees.
• 3 butter 4 compartments of a metal muffin tin. fold each ham slice into quarters, insert the point end in a buttered muffin cup, and let it open — it will have a ruffled look.
• 4 crack an egg into each ham cup. tuck 2 mozzarella cubes and two cherry tomato halves into each cup on top of the eggs, top with pesto and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• 5 bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until the egg looks set but the yolk is still a bit runny. remove the ham cups from the muffin tin and serve them in small bowls or lined up on a platter.
