Like most people, my mornings are rushed. I love to make these on the weekend for a quick, protein-filled breakfast during the week. They reheat well and are good for 5 days in the fridge. The texture is light and airy.

- coconut oil: 3 Tbsp (or as needed)
- ounces Black Forest ham: 2 piece (diced)

Stages of cooking
-
Fill a stockpot with enough water to just cover the jars. Attach a sous vide immersion cooker to the side of the pot. Set temperature to 172 degrees F (77 degrees C).
-
Generously oil the inside of each jar with coconut oil. Add ham and red pepper to the bottom of the jars.
-
Whisk eggs and cream together in a bowl until well combined. Stir in Cheddar cheese, salt, and nutmeg. Divide egg mixture among the jars. Close jars with lids and metal bands; tighten using the tips of your fingers only. Do not over-tighten.
-
Immerse in the water bath and cook for 1 hour. Carefully remove the jars, using tongs, to a heat-resistant surface. Let rest 10 minutes before opening the jars.
