Recipe Inspiration

About 15 years ago, one Sunday morning, I made a pie for my husband to enjoy later. We were making, as my two daughters, 4 and 8 years old, were “assisting” me. They took the extra dough and rolled it out for 20 minutes, which was perfect as I could finish the filling without stumbling over it. When they finished, they asked, “What can we make with this?” Mmm…quiche! It’s easy, simple and something they can do on their own.

Since then, this has become a staple morning meal. I miss the days of feeding 11 kids in the morning. It was always a bit crazy, but I loved every moment. What is great about this recipe is that you can make the dough ahead of time and have all the ingredients prepped when you are ready to make them. The crust can be placed in the ramekin, making the entire process simple.

how to make mini Quiche

This recipe includes an easy pastry dough to make the crust. You cut shortening into the flour using a fork or pastry blender. Then, you add the sugar, egg, and water.

Mix it all together until a dough is formed. Chill it in the fridge for up to an hour.

Roll out on a floured surface and cut to fit mini ramekins. This dough recipe will make 10-12, depending on the size of your ramekins.

Press each dough round into your ramekins.

To make the filling, combine egg and milk and whip until blended. Add additional ingredients such as meat, cheese, and veggies. Use 1 egg and 1 tablespoon of milk per ramekin.

Pour the egg mixture into the ramekins.

Place directly in the oven and bake 25-35 minutes at 350 degrees. The baking time will vary depending on the size of your ramekin. Check the center of the quiche if it is still wet looking cook a few minutes longer until set.

Remove them from the oven and cool for 5 minutes before serving.

These mini quiches are so easy and please everyone. I am not a huge morning meat person like the kids, but I love this with fresh veggies like sautéed portabella mushrooms and red peppers.
