Time to Cook

Steps to Make It

1. Start by preheating your oven to 375 °F. This ensures your quiches bake evenly and get that lovely golden color.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, butter, and salt. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until it resembles coarse crumbs. This will create a flaky crust.
3. Add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. It should feel moist but not sticky. If it’s too dry, add a bit more water.
4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out circles to fit your muffin tin. Lightly press the dough into each cup, making sure it covers the sides.
5. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. This mixture will make your quiches creamy and delicious.
6. Stir in the cheese, ham, spinach, and bell peppers. The colors will be vibrant, and the aroma will start to fill your kitchen. Pour this filling into each crust, filling them about three-quarters full.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and the filling is set. You’ll know they’re done when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
8. Let them cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature, and watch them disappear!

Make It Perfect

• For a fun twist, try adding different herbs like thyme or basil.
• Make sure your ingredients are prepped and ready to go before you start for a smoother process.
• These mini quiches can be served with a side of salsa or sour cream for added flavor.

Mix It Up

• Swap out the ham for cooked sausage or turkey for a different flavor.
• Use different vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini for a veggie-packed option.

Perfect Partners

• These mini quiches pair wonderfully with a fresh salad or a platter of assorted appetizers. They also go great with a light white wine or sparkling water.
