Huevos Rancheros Cakes

Huevos rancheros (rancher’s eggs) are a typical breakfast served at Mexican farms and usually feature tortillas and eggs adorned with salsa. Here’s another way to do the dish. Bundling up ingredients and baking them into individual Huevos Rancheros Cakes makes it easy to serve a satisfying early-day meal in a flash.

Eggs-pert advice

Eggs are kind of like nature’s cement. So when making mini-frittatas and other egg-based items, consider using a silicone muffin pan. It’s nonstick and bendable, which makes unmolding a breeze—without the need for greasing or using paper liners.
