Quichemuffins Recipes

CRUSTLESS BREAKFAST QUICHE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Brown sausage, breaking with a spoon. Drain well.
• Mix egg, milk and baking mix. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide egg mixture between 12 greased muffin tins.
• Divide sausage between muffin tins and cover with cheese.
• Bake 15-20 minutes or until tooth pick inserted comes out clean.
• Freeze left over muffins in single serving zip top bags. To reheat, place frozen muffins in microwave for approximately 60 seconds.

CRUSTLESS MINI QUICHE (SINGLE SERVING BREAKFAST MUFFINS)

Steps:

• If using meat (bacon, sausage, etc.), cook it fully first. Set it aside to cool, then cut into small pieces.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F., and thoroughly grease (butter, coconut oil, or non-stick spray) a muffin tin. (NOTE: I recommend using a non-stick muffin tin for even easier removal.)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, milk, parsley, basil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
• Get all your veggies diced up and ready to go. Optionally, you can saute your onion with a bit of olive oil to soften it up and take away some of its bite. Set aside and allow to cool.
• Add all the veggies to the bowl with the egg mixture, and stir to combine. Stir in half of the cheese, and all of the meat, if using.
• Using an ice-cream scoop or ¼ cup measure, scoop the mixture into the prepared muffin pan. Fill to about ¼ inch from the top, then sprinkle a small amount of reserved cheese over each. Place in the oven, and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg is fully set and the cheese has just started to turn golden on top.
• Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before running a butterknife around each muffin, and gently removing from the pan. Enjoy while warm, or let cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the fridge. Leftovers can be reheated for several seconds in the microwave (time will vary depending on your microwave), or a few minutes in a preheated oven or toaster oven.

QUICHE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat two muffin tins with nonstick spray. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Unroll pie crusts. Using a 3-inch round cutter, cut 12 rounds per crust (you may have to re-roll the pie crust to get all the rounds). Press into prepared muffin tins.
• Place one tablespoon each ham and cheese into each muffin. Divide scallions evenly among all muffins. Pour egg mixture evenly over all 24 cups, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top.
• Bake at 375 degrees or until golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes (remove a few to check that the crust is cooked completely on the bottom). Cool slightly and serve warm.

EASY MINI QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease 12 muffin tins.
• Trim or cut bread into circles. Place circles in bottom of muffin tins. Distribute the onion and shredded cheese evenly between the muffin tins.
• In a medium bowl, combine milk, eggs, mustard and pepper. Divide between the muffin tins.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a quiche comes out clean.

CLASSIC QUICHE

Steps:

• Crust: Pulse flour and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk together egg and yolk with ice water. Add to flour mixture and pulse until moist crumbs start to form (no longer). Transfer mixture to a piece of plastic wrap and, using wrap and your hands, form into a disk (or 2 disks, if making 2 quiches in pie plates). Refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Let sit at room temperature until pliable, then roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to a 14-inch round. Fit into a 9-inch springform pan, folding and pressing sides to an even thickness. (Or roll out 2 disks to 11-inch rounds and fit into 8- or 9-inch pie plates.)
• Trim edge of dough flush with top of springform pan. (If using pie plates, fold edges of dough under; crimp as desired.) Wrap in plastic; freeze at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Line crust with parchment; fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake, with a baking sheet on rack below, 20 minutes; remove paper and beans. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes (8 to 10 minutes, for pie plates). Let cool.
• Reduce oven to 375 degrees. Whisk eggs until smooth, then whisk in remaining ingredients until well combined.
• Pour custard mixture into cooled crust, stopping just short of top (if making in 2 pie plates, divide evenly between crusts). You may not need to use all of custard; be careful not to overfill.
• Add any toppings. Bake 10 minutes; reduce oven to 325 degrees. Bake until filling is just set. Let cool about 1 hour before serving.

MUFFIN SIZED BREAKFAST QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Lightly grease your muffin pan with spray or oil on a paper towel, set aside.
• Saute the Chopped Onions in a pan with the tablespoon of oil, until translucent.
• Crack the eggs in a bowl and beat as if making scrambled eggs. Salt and Pepper eggs to taste.
• Into the greased muffin cups add about 3 or 4 leaves of Spinach. (You probably won't use the whole bag.).
• Top the Spinach with about a teaspoon each of the sauted Onions.
• Top the onions with about 1 Tablespoon each of the Cheddar Cheese.
• Then ladle enough egg mixture into each muffin cup to fill the tin about 2/3 full.
• Bake your little quiches for 10-20 minutes, (depending on the size of your muffin tin cups.) They should be nicely browned on top, but do not overcook. Check for doneness with a toothpick.
• Let your quiche-muffins cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Then using a dinner knife, gently run the blade around the perimeter of each muffin to loosen. Then plop them carefully on a plate to finish cooling and serve.
