Ingredients
-
- 1 package of pre-made pie crust (or homemade if preferred)
-
- 6 large eggs
-
- 1/4 cup milk (or alternative milk such as almond milk)
-
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
-
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
-
- 1/2 cup diced cooked ham
-
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (such as cheddar, Swiss, or Gruyere)
-
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers (optional, for added color and flavor)
-
- 1/4 cup diced onions (optional)
-
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley or chives)
Instructions
-
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pie crust and use a round cutter or glass to cut out circles slightly larger than the size of your mini muffin tin cups.
-
- Lightly grease a mini muffin tin or line with paper liners, then gently press the pie crust circles into each cup, forming mini pie crusts.
-
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
-
- Stir in the diced ham, shredded cheese, bell peppers, onions, and chopped fresh herbs until evenly distributed.
-
- Pour the egg mixture into the prepared mini pie crusts, filling each one about 3/4 full.
-
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the quiches are set and golden brown on top.
-
- Remove the quiches from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them.
-
- Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
-
- With the addition of the pie crust, these Mini Ham and Cheese Quiches will have a delicious and flaky base to complement the savory filling.
