Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375º F.
- Spray mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray, set aside.
- Using a small round cutter, cut pie crust and place into indentations of muffin tin and place in the oven to pre-bake for about 15 minutes. Alternately, you can place each of the premade phyllo cups into the muffin tin. For a crustless mini quiche, simply omit.
- Whisk together eggs and heavy cream or half-and-half until light and fluffy. Add salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper until well-combined. Stir in cheese. Pour into pie shells and top with add-in options as desired. Bake for for 15-25 minutes until the egg mixture is set. Remove from the oven and let rest about 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Nutritional value includes the crust.
- To store. Place completely cooled mini quiche in an airtight container or wrap well and place in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To freeze. For easy make-ahead mini quiche, once they have been completely cooked and cooled, flash freeze them for about 30 minutes to an hour on a baking sheet. Then, place them in a freezer-safe zip-top bag or another freezer-safe container, label them for the type or types of quiche included in the container, and freeze them for up to two months.
- To reheat. To rewarm them, you simply pop them back into a mini muffin tin or onto a rimmed baking sheet and reheat them. From frozen, reheat in a 375º F oven for 8-10 minutes. Those in the refrigerator will need less time, approximately 4-5 minutes in the oven. You can also heat them in the microwave at 70 percent power for 25-40 seconds, checking at the lower amount of time. Take care not to overheat, as they will become tough.
