Mini quiches are bite-sized savory treats filled with a creamy egg mixture and various fillings like vegetables, cheese, and meats. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as appetizers and can be easily customized to fit any taste preference.

Ingredients

  1. 1 package refrigerated pie crusts (or homemade, if preferred)
  2. 4 large eggs
  3. 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  4. 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
  5. 1/2 cup cooked spinach, drained (or any other veggie of choice)
  6. 1/4 cup cooked bacon, crumbled (optional)
  7. 1/4 cup diced onion
  8. 1/4 tsp salt
  9. 1/4 tsp black pepper
  10. 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
  11. 1/4 tsp paprika (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a mini muffin tin with non-stick spray or lightly butter it.

  1. Prepare the crusts: Roll out the pie crusts and cut them into small circles that fit the mini muffin tin. Press each circle into the bottom of the muffin cups to form a crust.
  2. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until well combined. Add cheese, spinach, bacon, and onion. Stir gently to combine.
  3. Fill the muffin cups: Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 full.
  4. Bake the mini quiches: Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the quiches are set and golden on top. Insert a toothpick to check for doneness—it should come out clean.
  5. Cool and serve: Let the quiches cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them.

Notes

  • For a crustless version, simply grease the muffin tin and skip the pie crusts.
  • To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, ensure the vegetables are well-drained, especially spinach or mushrooms.
  • For more variety, consider adding different vegetables or using a mix of cheeses.
