The new school year is well and truly underway and I am a massive fan of finding things to make the morning routine easier.
The boys are feel bored with breakfast cereals and as the cooler morning set in the idea of having a more warming breakfast is a great idea. However the full english breakfast is too much faff as I still need to keep the morning on trick timings wise and not having much sleep the idea of getting up super early is not one that works for me.
These ham, egg and cheese brunch bakes can be eater hot or colder and can be prepped and left to cook while the routine carries on.
I also love this basic recipe as it could be used with so many other variations. We love chucking in bits we have left in the fridge to giving it a new take on omelettes. Other items that make it into our brunch bakes are spring onions, peppers finely chopped (only use a few or it will make the bakes too wet) You could also swap the ham for sausage or even bacon if you wanted too!
Now its your turn to have some stress free mornings ….
