Mini Smoked Cheddar And Bacon Quiches Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Roll out 1 sheet of pie dough on a lightly floured surface until very thin and about 14 inches in diameter. Cut out 12 rounds with a 2 3/4- to 3-inch cookie cutter. Repeat with the remaining sheet of pie dough. Press the rounds firmly into each cup of a 24-cup mini-muffin pan (preferably nonstick). Lightly prick the bottoms and sides with a fork.
• Bake the crusts until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a small skillet over medium heat, turning, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then finely chop. Whisk the eggs, heavy cream and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
• Sprinkle the bacon in the bottom of each crust. Fill with the egg mixture and top with chives. Bake until just set, about 15 minutes (it's OK if some egg leaks through the pastry). Let cool 10 minutes, then remove from the pan.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Place tart shells on an ungreased baking sheet; fill each with 2 teaspoons mixture., Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until filling is set and shells are lightly browned. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Cook bacon in one pan and saute green onions with butter, salt, and pepper in another pan. Once cooled, crumble bacon in a bowl. The green onions should be slightly caramelized and set aside to cool.
• Combine caramelized green onions, cheese, and salt and pepper to taste. Put half of mixture in separate bowl and combine with bacon.
• Whisk together eggs, milk, and a little bit of salt and pepper.
• Divide egg mixture into cups of a greased 12 cup muffin pan.
• Top half egg muffins with a spoonful of the vegetarian mixture and half with a spoonful of the bacon mixture.
• Bake for 30 minutes and let cool for 2 minutes before eating.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place bacon slices in a single layer on a bacon rack or foil-lined, rimmed baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and crisp, 10 to 11 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Increase the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with some of the rendered bacon fat.
• Saute onion and garlic in a little bacon fat over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Beat milk, eggs, and cream in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add spinach, Cheddar cheese, and the cooked onion mixture. Season with salt and pepper and mix with a spatula to combine.
• Make a ring of bacon by running a slice around the sides of each muffin cup. Scoop egg mixture into the center of each bacon ring.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Sprinkle each pastry crust with 1 teaspoon flour; place floured side down on a lightly floured surface. Cut 12 circles from each crust, using a 2-1/2 in. round biscuit cutter. Press dough onto the bottom and up the sides of miniature muffin cups coated with cooking spray; set aside., In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of mixture into each prepared crust. Bake at 400° for 14-18 minutes or until filling is set. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm.
