Crustless Mini Quiche Lorraine Recipes

CRUSTLESS MINI QUICHE LORRAINE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a 12-cup standard muffin tin with nonstick spray.
• Spray a skillet with nonstick spray. Saute spinach over medium-low heat just until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Divide bacon among the muffin cups. Squeeze moisture out of the spinach and place on top of bacon. Sprinkle with chives, then top with equal portions of Swiss cheese.
• Blend eggs, cream, seasoning blend, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Pour mixture slowly into each cup, stopping just before it reaches the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving; it's normal for puffy quiche to settle and flatten.

MINI QUICHE LORRAINE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Arrange tart shells in 2 muffin tins; line shell each with a layer of pie weights or dried beans.
• Bake shells in the preheated oven until edges of crusts are lightly browned and about 75% cooked, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble when cooled.
• Divide 1 cup Swiss cheese, bacon, and green onions evenly into the tart shells.
• Whisk eggs, milk, mustard, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl. Ladle egg mixture into each tart shell about 2/3 full. Top each tart with the remaining 1/4 cup Swiss cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until egg is set in the middle of each tart and shells are browned, 25 to 30 minutes.

• In a large bowl whisk the eggs and milk until eggs are broken up. Stir in the rest of the ingredients.
• Grease a metal cupcake tin and pour the mixture into each cup filling it ¾ of the way.
• Bake in the oven for 17 minutes or until knife inserted comes out clean.

CHEESY QUICHE LORRAINE

Steps:

• Cook chopped bacon in a heavy skillet with a little butter or olive oil until browned.
• Remove the bacon from the skillet to a glass or paper plate lined with a couple paper towels.
• Butter a 9" glass pie dish.
• Spread bacon and then the grated Gruyere in the pie plate.
• Whisk together the eggs, creme fraiche, salt, and pepper.
• Pour over the bacon and cheese, using a fork to gently distribute the bacon and cheese evenly.
• Bake the quiche in a water bath in a 350F oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
• Serve hot or at room temperature.
• Note: A water bath is simply placing the dish to be cooked in a larger dish, then filling the larger dish with water to about 1" from the top of the smaller dish, then bake.
• I get the water ready to pour, place the uncooked quiche in the larger dish and then into the oven, and THEN pour the water in.
• Be very careful pulling this out of the oven.
• Move slowly so the hot water doesn't slosh about.
• Don't pull your oven rack out with the dish on it unless your rack moves very smoothly or the water will slosh.

EASY CRUSTLESS MINI-QUICHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Spray muffin cups lightly with Pam.
• Divide broccoli evenly among muffin cups. Crumble one strip of bacon into each. Divide shredded cheese evenly among muffin cups. With a fork or your fingers, mix the veggie, bacon and cheese a little, so they don't end up in layers when your quiche is done.
• In large mixing bowl, beat eggs well. Add heavy cream and mix well. Stir in seasonings. Pour mixture evenly into muffin cups. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Mini-quiches are done when knife inserted into middle comes out clean.
• (Note: these will puff up a lot in the oven, then shrink back down as they cool. Perfectly normal.).
• These can be refrigerated and microwaved, works well for a fast breakfast.
