Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Butter or non-stick spray, for greasing
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with butter or non-stick spray and set aside.
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch them for 2-3 minutes until they are tender but still bright green. Drain and set aside to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and onion powder until fully combined.
Roughly chop the cooled broccoli florets into smaller pieces and divide them evenly among the greased muffin cups.
Sprinkle an even layer of shredded cheddar cheese into each muffin cup over the broccoli.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 of the way full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the quiches are set in the middle and lightly golden on top.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the quiches cool for 5-10 minutes before gently running a knife around each quiche to release it.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
