Ingredients
  

4 slices of crusty bread (sourdough or ciabatta recommended)

4 large eggs

1 cup shredded cheese (choose from cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend of your favorites)

1/4 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh herbs (chives, parsley, or thyme) for garnish

Cooking spray or melted butter for greasing the muffin tin

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.

    Prepare the Muffin Tin: Generously grease a standard muffin tin using cooking spray or a small amount of melted butter to ensure the toast cups can be easily removed after baking.

      Create the Bread Cups: Use a rolling pin or your hands to lightly flatten each slice of bread. Carefully press each slice into a muffin tin cavity to form a cup shape, making sure the edges are sufficiently high to hold the filling securely.

        Whisk the Egg Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk everything together until smoothly blended.

          Assemble the Cups: Begin by adding a tablespoon of shredded cheese to the bottom of each bread cup. Next, gently pour the egg mixture over the cheese, filling each cup almost to the top (leave a small space for expansion during baking). Finally, sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of each cup for that extra cheesy goodness.

            Bake the Cups: Carefully place the muffin tin in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the egg is set and the tops are a golden brown color.

              Cool and Serve: After baking, remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. To help release the cups from the tin, run a knife gently around the edges of each cup.

                Garnish and Enjoy: Before serving, top each mini egg toast cup with a sprinkle of freshly chopped herbs for an added burst of flavor. Serve them warm or at room temperature for a delightful treat.
