Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1 package pre-made puff pastry, thawed if frozen
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, optional for greasing
For the Filling
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk or milk alternative
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta)
  • 1 cup chopped vegetables (spinach, bell peppers, or mushrooms)
  • ½ cup diced cooked meat (ham or bacon, optional)
  • to taste salt and pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly grease a muffin tin with olive oil or use silicone muffin cups.
  3. Roll out thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut out circles to fit muffin tins.
  4. Gently press the pastry circles into the muffin tins to form the crusts.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  6. Distribute vegetables, cheese, and meat evenly among the crusts. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings until just full.
Cooking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the egg is set and the tops are golden brown.
  2. Let the mini quiches cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully lifting them out.

Notes

Experiment with different fillings and fresh herbs. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for a month. Reheat in the oven for best texture.
