Mini Quiche, Crustless
This Mini Crustless Quiche features a creamy custard base made from eggs and half and half filled with spinach, ham, cheddar cheese, and fresh diced tomato. Baking in a muffin pan creates convenient individual portions with golden-brown edges and a tender, set center. The lack of crust keeps the quiches light and highlights the savory fillings and spices.

Notes
- Grease the muffin pan well, even if non-stick, to facilitate easy removal and achieve a golden crust edge.
- Squeeze out as much liquid as possible from defrosted spinach to prevent watery quiches.
- Let quiches rest in the pan for a few minutes after baking to help them hold their shape and ease removal.
- These crustless mini quiches freeze well when wrapped airtight, good for 1 to 2 months.
