  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  3. Divide cheese and any desired fillings (ham/bacon, veggies, onion) evenly among the muffin cups.
  4. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings, filling each cup about ¾ full.
  5. Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the quiches are set and lightly golden on top.
  6. Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 2–3 minutes.
  7. Run a small knife around edges if needed, then gently lift mini quiches out.
  8. Serve warm or refrigerate and reheat as needed.

Notes

  • Make them ahead: Fully bake, cool, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days; reheat in microwave or oven.
  • To freeze: Bake, cool, and freeze in a single layer on a sheet tray; transfer to freezer bags for up to 2 months. Reheat directly from frozen.
  • Customize fillings: Try diced tomatoes, mushrooms, cooked sausage, feta cheese, or fresh herbs.
  • For dairy-free version, use dairy-free milk and cheese alternatives.
  • If using raw vegetables (like broccoli), pre-cook or steam briefly to ensure they’re tender.
