- 12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 4 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups half-and-half
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Press the pie crust into a 12-cup muffin tin, creating liners for your quiches.
- In each muffin cup, evenly distribute the crumbled bacon, Gruyere cheese, Swiss cheese, and chopped onion.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, salt, pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.
- Carefully pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about three-quarters full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the quiches are set and lightly golden brown.
- Let them cool slightly in the muffin tin before carefully removing them.
Notes
- You can use pre-shredded cheese to save time.
- For a crispier crust, you can blind-bake the pie crust for 5-7 minutes before adding the filling.
- These mini quiches are delicious served warm or at room temperature.
