Easy Mini Quiches with Pie Crust
Mini quiches with flaky pie crust and a creamy, cheesy filling—perfect for breakfast, brunch, or snacks!
Ingredients
- 2 store-bought pie crust or homemade
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup milk or cream
- ⅔ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or feta)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: ⅔ cup diced ham (spinach, mushrooms, or bacon)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin.
- Cut the pie crust: Roll out the pie dough and use a round cutter or a glass to cut circles slightly larger than the muffin cups.
- Press into the muffin tin: Gently press each dough circle into the muffin cups, making sure the crust fits snugly along the edges.
- Prepare the egg mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Add fillings: Sprinkle cheese and any mix-ins (ham, spinach, mushrooms, etc.) into each crust-lined muffin cup.
- Pour in the egg mixture: Carefully pour the egg mixture over the fillings, filling each cup about ¾ full.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the tops are lightly golden.
- Cool and serve: Let the mini quiches cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan. Serve warm and enjoy!
