Mini Quiche
Report
Mini Quiche features individual-sized savory tarts filled with a creamy custard of eggs and heavy cream mixed with chopped ham, cheddar cheese, green onions, and parsley in a buttery pie crust. These small quiches bake until set with lightly golden crust edges, delivering a rich, tender filling with flavorful meat and herbs in each bite. They are convenient for appetizers or light meals.
Description
This recipe blends eggs and heavy cream into a custard base, into which cooked ham, shredded cheddar, chopped green onions, and fresh parsley are stirred for savory flavor and texture contrasts. The mixture is seasoned with salt and pepper before being poured into cut circles of refrigerated pie crust pressed into muffin tin wells. Baking at 375 degrees until just set yields quiches with soft, tender centers and flaky crust shells. The mini format allows for easy portioning and serving.
Mini Quiches serve well warm as appetizers, brunch items, or light meals. Cooling slightly before removal helps keep them intact. They can be made ahead and reheated gently for convenience.
