Broccoli Cheddar Mini Quiches Recipes

BROCCOLI AND CHEDDAR QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place pie crust into a 9-inch deep pie dish and prick crust all over with a fork; brush with oil. Place crust onto prepared baking sheet.
• Bake crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes.
• Place broccoli into a bowl and microwave on high until broccoli is bright green and slightly tender, about 4 minutes. Whisk eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, oregano, salt, pepper, and thyme in a bowl; stir broccoli into egg mixture. Pour mixture into crust and sprinkle quiche with Cheddar and Parmesan cheeses. Place pie dish on the baking sheet.
• Bake until a knife inserted into the middle of the quiche comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

MINI BROCCOLI QUICHES WITH PROSCIUTTO CRUSTS

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the broccoli in the boiling water according to the package instructions. Drain, then cut into small florets.
• Slice the prosciutto in half lengthwise to make long strips. Line each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan with 2 strips of prosciutto arranged in an X pattern. Fold the overhang back into each cup and lightly press to cover any gaps or holes. Hold in the refrigerator.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the crushed red pepper and garlic, then season with salt and pepper. Cook until the garlic is softened, another 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, cream and eggs and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix in the cooled onion and garlic mixture and the Parmesan. Divide the broccoli among the prosciutto-lined muffin cups. Pour some of the egg mixture into each cup, filling each about three-quarters full.
• Bake until the quiches are set, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the muffin cups. Serve warm.

MINI BROCCOLI CHEDDAR QUICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Add the room temperature butter and room temperature cream cheese to a bowl. Use a mixer to whip them together until evenly combined.
• Begin stirring in the flour, about ¼ cup at a time, until a dough forms. The dough should be soft, but not sticky.
• Divide the dough into 12 equal portions (begin by dividing into four pieces, then divide each quarter into three equal-sized pieces). Roll each piece of dough into a ball, then drop each one into the well of a muffin tin. Use your fingers to press the dough down into the center and up the sides of the wells (see step by step photos below for more help).
• Whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan, garlic powder, pepper, and salt in a bowl.
• Finely chop the thawed broccoli florets (about 1.5 cups once chopped). Shred the cheddar cheese (about 1 cup shredded). Add the broccoli and cheddar to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
• Divide the broccoli cheddar mixture between the twelve mini pie crusts. The liquid egg mixture will not fully submerge the broccoli and cheddar in the crusts, but it will puff up and fill the crust once baked.
• Bake the mini quiches in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until puffed in the center and golden brown around the edges.
• Carefully transfer the baked quiches to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm, or at room temperature within two hours of baking.
