The quintessential brunch food is quiche. It’s got a fancy name and it’s associated with a fancy meal. Quiche is actually very simple to make, and can be enjoyed every day. A flaky pastry filled with eggs, milk, and cheese are the base for this savory pie.
Spinach, bacon, and onions are delicious in quiche. You can use a variety of cheeses, vegetables, and meats. Be as creative as you want. Making mini quiches is a fun way to customize them to your liking.
They freeze well and make a great breakfast on the go. Mini quiche would be a wonderful addition to a holiday celebration. Quiche is a versatile dish. It’s filling and can be used in a variety of ways. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner time are perfect for these small pies.
Happy Eating!

Mini Quiche
Yield: 24
Ingredients
2 unbaked pie crusts (homemade or store bought)
6 eggs
2 cups milk
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
Filling:
shredded cheese (Swiss, cheddar, mozzarella, Gruyere)
crumbled cheese (feta, blue)
bacon bits
chopped ham
chopped turkey
spinach
onion
mushroom
tomato
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°.
- Spray muffin pans with cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper until combined.
- Roll out the pie crust. Use a 3 inch round cutter to make approximately 12 mini crusts per pie crust.
- Place each circle of pastry into the greased muffin pan, gently pressing them to the bottom and sides.
- Put a tablespoon of filling into each pastry shell.
- Pour the egg mixture over the filling, being careful not to overfill.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until the quiche is puffed and the pastry is golden brown.
- Cool in the muffin pan for 5 minutes. Use a knife to carefully remove the mini quiches. Enjoy!
Notes
*Use half whole milk, and half heavy cream for a richer taste.
*Don’t worry if you overfill a few quiches. They will still cook well and taste good.
* Store leftover quiches in the refrigerator.
* Cool the mini quiches before freezing.

Great recipe, and I’m thinking instead of eating junk snacks on Sunday evenings, these would be so much better…..maybe the same calories, depending on the fillings, but more nutritious. Thanks for this great idea.
