Ingredients
12 Eggs2 c Milk1 c Cottage Cheese1 tsp Salt8 tsp Cinnamon Sugar4 Tbs Jam or Jelly
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 375
Grease 8 8oz canning jars (or custard cups) and place on a baking sheet. I wipe the inside with butter using my fingers.

Add a heaping tsp of Jam to each jar. Sprinkle about of teaspoon of sugar (I use cinnamon sugar, but spice at will) on top.

Whisk together eggs, milk, cottage cheese and salt. Quickly pour into each jar leaving about 3/4 inch of room at the top. Give each jar a quick stir to mix ingredients (unless you want stratified layers with jam on the bottom). Put the baking sheet in the oven.

Bake for 20-25 minutes. The egg should still look wet and underdone when you pull them out of the oven, and it will be puffed up out of the jar. They will continue cooking and collapse back into the jar. Cool, cap and refrigerate and they're ready to grab for breakfast or lunch for the rest of the week.
