Crazy Easy Quiche Recipe (Freestyle)
Description
This quiche recipe begins by whisking eggs with heavy cream and scrambling them in oil until cooked. A sheet of puff pastry dough is rolled thinner and cut into small squares serving as individual crusts. Each square is topped with a spoonful of scrambled eggs, then layered with cooked bacon bits, chopped ham, grated mozzarella, and chopped green onions.
The edges of the pastry are brushed with beaten egg and folded over to create an enclosed shape. The assembled mini quiches are baked at 400°F until the pastry turns golden brown and crisp. This method yields small, handheld quiches combining creamy eggs with rich meat and cheese flavors enclosed in flaky pastry.
These quiches are versatile for serving as a warm snack, brunch dish, or party finger food. The combination of bacon, ham, and mozzarella provides savory richness, while green onions add a mild sharpness.
Ingredients
- 6 egg
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp neutral cooking oil for cooking, generic cooking oil
- 1/2 cup Bacon cooked bacon bits
- 1/2 cup ham chopped
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese grated

Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs and heavy cream together. In a skillet preheated with oil, scramble the eggs until fully cooked. Remove the eggs and set them aside.

- Slice ham into thin strips.
- Top the eggs with bacon crisps, ham, cheese, and green onions.
- Brush the edges with whisked egg and fold over the sides, creating an envelop shape. Place the mini quiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure to leave enough space between each. Brush the tops with whisked egg.
- Bake the quiche at 400°F for about 15 minutes or until they turn golden brown. Serve warm and enjoy!
