Ingredients
Instructions
Step 1
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
Step 2
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie crust to about ⅛-inch thickness. Using a 3-inch round cutter or glass, cut out 12 circles from the dough.
Step 3
3. Press each circle into the prepared muffin cups, making sure the dough comes up the sides. If using puff pastry, gently press into cups without stretching.
Step 4
4. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 5
5. Distribute the cheese and chosen fillings evenly among the pastry cups. If using, sprinkle fresh herbs over the fillings.
Step 6
6. Carefully pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling about ¾ full to prevent overflow during baking.
Step 7
7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until the quiches are puffed, golden brown, and set in the center. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
Step 8
8. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
