01 -  Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a standard 6-cup muffin tin or tartlet pan. 
 02 -  Boil ramen noodles for 2 minutes, just until tender; drain, rinse under cold water, and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels. 
 03 -  In a medium bowl, toss drained noodles with 2 eggs, melted butter, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until evenly coated. 
 04 -  Divide noodle mixture evenly among muffin cups; press firmly into bottoms and up sides to form crusts. Bake for 10 minutes until set and lightly golden. 
 05 -  In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 eggs, milk, cream, cheese, ham (if desired), scallions, bell pepper, black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. 
 06 -  Pour filling into pre-baked noodle crusts, dividing evenly. Bake for 18–20 minutes, until centers are just set and filling is puffed. 
 07 -  Allow tartlets to cool in pan for 5 minutes; carefully remove and serve warm or at room temperature.
