Remove about 1 spoon of bacon fat from the pan and set it aside.

Chop up some fresh spinach and add it to the pan with the remaining bacon fat.

Season the spinach with salt and black pepper and cook until it wilts and releases its water.

Add 1 tablespoon of sour cream to the spinach and mix well, then set aside to cool.

Chop the cooked bacon into pieces.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

In a mixing bowl, crack 2 eggs and season with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of paprika; beat the eggs well.

Add the chopped bacon and the creamy spinach mixture to the eggs and mix thoroughly.

Grease a ramekin with some reserved bacon fat.

Pour the egg mixture into the greased ramekin.

If using an oven, bake for about 15 to 18 minutes until cooked through; if using a microwave, cook for 90 seconds.

After 17 minutes and 42 seconds, check if the egg cup is done; it should rise and be set.
