For our brunches, we bake eggs in cornbread cups. With cheddar sauce and more cheese sprinkled on top, they make a cute little meal-in-one package. —Lisa Speer, Palm Beach, Florida

Ingredients

1 package (8-1/2 ounces) cornbread/muffin mix
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup crumbled cooked bacon
12 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
TOPPING:
4 teaspoons butter
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 cup 2% milk
1-1/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt, divided

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°. In a small bowl, combine muffin mix, buttermilk and sour cream just until moistened; fold in cheese and bacon. Spoon into 12 greased muffin cups. Crack an egg into each cup; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake until egg whites are completely set and yolks are still soft, 18-22 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pan.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup cheese, thyme and 1/8 teaspoon seasoned salt until cheese is melted.
Serve muffins with sauce; sprinkle with the remaining cheese and seasoned salt. Serve immediately.
