MINI QUICHE

Recipe video above. Each filling below makes 24 mini quiches, so USE ONE FILLING. If you want to make more than 1, scale the filling recipe DOWN (use the slider below). A quick blind bake will ensure the pastry doesn't go soggy and it cooks through in the short time it takes for the filling to bake!

IMPOSSIBLY EASY MINI QUICHES



Impossibly Easy Mini Quiches image

I made these for a retirement reception for a friend at work. Much easier than trying to slice and serve traditional quiche. When working with mini muffin pans, be sure to dice/mince ingredients very fine, so they fill the little wells properly. Also, make certain the wells are well-greased. I have one pan that is non-stick but...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 c broccoli and cauliflower florets
1 1/2 Tbsp dehydrated onion flakes
2-3 Tbsp finely diced bell pepper
3 Tbsp finely chopped celery *or* 1 tsp celery salt (omit salt if you use this)
2/3 c shredded cheese (more or less)
3 eggs, beaten
1 c milk
1/2 c baking mix (like bisquick)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp crushed rosemary

Steps:

  • 1. Place broccoli, cauliflower, dried onion flakes, and chopped celery (if used) in a saucepan and just barely cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until vegetables are tender, about 6 minutes. Drain well in a fine strainer and chop all the vegetables very fine. Mix in the bell pepper.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease well 2 mini-muffin pans (24 wells). Place a rounded teaspoon or so of the cooked chopped vegetables in each well. Chop the shredded cheese just a bit to make smaller pieces, and place about a teaspoon on top of the vegetables in each well. Do not press down.
  • 3. Beat the eggs and milk with the seasonings, including the celery salt if you did not use fresh celery. Do not use both salts - 1 teaspoon of either is enough. Stir in the baking mix and beat until very smooth. You could use a blender for this step, but I prefer using a wire whisk.
  • 4. Ladle a small amount of the liquid into each muffin well, allowing it to settle, and filling each well not quite to the rim. You may not use all the liquid; save it for use in the "leftover" serving (see below in step 7).
  • 5. Bake the mini quiches at 400°F for 22 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pans at least 10 minutes. Then carefully run a thin bladed knife around each one, loosening the sides. If they are still too hot, they will stick.
  • 6. Allow the mini quiches to rest another 5 minutes, then carefully remove from the pans. Cool them on a rack. I like to place them upside down to cool. May be served at room temperature, or refrigerated.
  • 7. What to do with the leftover batter? I took a 6-inch ramekin, greased it well, and placed some chopped ham and shredded cheese in the bottom. I poured the remaining batter over, and baked it at the same time as the mini quiches. It took 30-35 minutes to be done. Waste not, want not!

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, blind-bake the quiche crust before filling it.
  • If you don't have a mini muffin tin, you can use a regular muffin tin and just fill the cups halfway.
  • To make the quiches ahead of time, bake them and then let them cool completely. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • When you're ready to serve the quiches, reheat them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until they're warmed through.
  • You can also freeze the unbaked quiches. To do this, assemble the quiches and then freeze them on a baking sheet. Once they're frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag and store them for up to 3 months.
  • When you're ready to bake the quiches, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and then bake the quiches from frozen for about 15 minutes longer than the recipe calls for.

Conclusion:

Mini quiches are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and frozen. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a mini quiche recipe that everyone will enjoy.
