Ingredients
2 pie crusts
6 large eggs
½ cup whole milk
½ cup heavy cream
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
½ cup chopped onion
¾ cup diced cooked ham
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
Butter, for greasing muffin tin
Instructions
- Roll out pie dough and cut into 4-inch rounds. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter and press dough into each cup. Freeze tin while preparing filling.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, cream, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Stir in spinach, onion, ham, and cheese.
- Remove muffin tin from freezer and fill each crust about ¾ full with egg mixture.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, until centers are set and tops are lightly golden.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and serve warm.
Notes
- Swap ham for bacon or sausage, or use extra vegetables for a vegetarian version.
- Try cheddar, gruyère, or goat cheese for variety.
- Use a mini muffin tin for smaller quiches—bake 15–20 minutes.
- Make crustless by pouring filling directly into greased muffin cups.
- Freeze baked or unbaked; reheat at 350°F for 10–15 minutes from frozen.
