These easy savory mini quiche bites come together quickly with simple ingredients, offering a flaky crust and creamy, flavorful filling perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pre-made 9-inch pie crusts (store-bought or homemade)
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • ½ cup (120 ml) heavy cream
  • 1 cup (100 g) shredded cheese (sharp cheddar or blend with Gruyère)
  • ½ cup (70 g) cooked bacon or ham, diced (optional)
  • ½ cup (30 g) chopped and squeezed dry spinach (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. Roll out the pie crusts on a clean surface. Using a 3-inch (7.5 cm) round cookie cutter or glass, cut out 12 circles.
  3. Press each circle gently into the muffin cups, covering the bottom and sides evenly.
  4. If using bacon or ham, dice and cook briefly until just crispy or warmed through.
  5. Chop spinach finely and squeeze out excess moisture. Slice green onions thinly. Combine all fillings in a small bowl.
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and heavy cream until smooth and pale.
  7. Stir in shredded cheese, cooked fillings, spinach, green onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  8. Spoon the filling evenly into each crust-lined muffin cup, filling almost to the top but leaving space for puffing.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Centers should be firm but slightly jiggly.
  10. Let the mini quiches cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing carefully with a spatula or butter knife.
  11. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Lightly grease the muffin tin or use non-stick spray for easier cleanup. If crust edges brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil halfway through baking. Pre-cook fillings to avoid soggy crust. Let quiches rest after baking to firm up filling. Variations include vegetarian, spicy, dairy-free, seasonal, and crustless versions.
