Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tin or line it with parchment cupcake liners.
Roll out the pie crust dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thick. Use a round cutter (about 4 inches in diameter) to cut out 6 circles of dough.
Press the dough circles into the muffin tin cups, ensuring they line the bottoms and sides evenly. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Sprinkle a portion of crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese into each prepared muffin cup. For added flavor, you can also sprinkle a little chopped green onion on top.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 full. Avoid overfilling to prevent spillage during baking.
Place the muffin tin on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the quiches are puffed, golden, and set in the center.
Remove from the oven and let the quiches cool in the muffin tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Serve warm, or let them cool completely for a delicious make-ahead breakfast or snack!
