Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 6 slices Cooked bacon
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped chives
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
Chop the cooked bacon into small pieces and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth.
Stir in the salt, black pepper, and onion powder.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped bacon, and chives to the egg mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the quiches are set and lightly golden on top.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the quiches to cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
Carefully run a butter knife around the edges of each quiche to release them from the pan.
Serve warm, or let them cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
