Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices Bacon
- 4 cups Fresh spinach
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
Remove excess bacon fat from the skillet, leaving about 1-2 teaspoons. Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth. Add the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Whisk until well combined.
Gently fold in the sautéed spinach and crumbled bacon into the egg mixture.
Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the quiches are set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the quiches cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing them with a knife or small spatula.
Serve warm, or store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days for an easy meal prep option. Reheat in the microwave or oven as needed.
