Quiche muffins are a delightful and versatile dish that combines the flavors of a classic quiche with the convenience of individual serving sizes. These muffins are made with a savory filling of broccoli, cheese, eggs, and seasonings, all encased in a flaky pastry crust. They can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and are perfect for picnics, potlucks, or meal prep. This recipe provides step-by-step instructions for creating both a traditional quiche muffin and a gluten-free version, ensuring that everyone can enjoy this delicious treat.
In this article, you'll find two variations of quiche muffins: a classic quiche muffin made with all-purpose flour and a gluten-free quiche muffin made with almond flour and gluten-free baking mix. Both recipes are easy to follow and can be customized to your liking. You can add different vegetables, cheeses, and herbs to create a unique and flavorful quiche muffin that suits your taste preferences. The recipes also include detailed instructions on how to make the pastry crust from scratch, but you can also use a store-bought crust if you're short on time.
