Ingredients
- 400 g (14oz) frozen puff pastry thawed
- 4 strips streaky bacon cooked and roughly chopped
- 250 g (½lb) mushrooms sliced and sautéed
- 4 cups baby spinach washed and sautéed
- 2 cups grated cheese cheddar/gruyere/monterey jack
- 8 eggs
- ¾ cup cream
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- 1 egg for egg wash
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350?.
- Grease 5cm/2inch ramekins with non-stick cooking spray or brush with melted butter. You can add a disc of parchment paper to the bottom of each ramekin too if you prefer.
- Cut the thawed puff pastry into squares then press each piece of pastry into a ramekin.
- Note: I don't blind bake this quiche as that is more suited to homemade pie crust/shortcrust pastry. Just make sure to bake the quiches on the bottom rack of the oven to prevent soggy bottoms.
- Add the grated cheese, chopped crispy bacon, sautéed spinach and cooked mushrooms.
- Whisk the eggs, cream, salt and pepper together and pour the egg mixture into each ramekin.
- Fold the pastry over the topping and brush with a a beaten egg.
- Place the ramekins onto a sheet pan and place on the bottom rack of a preheated oven.
- Allow to bake for 20-30 minutes or until the pastry is crisp and golden and the filling is set.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
