Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Premade pie crust
- 4 Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 6 slices Bacon
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
- 1 as needed Non-stick spray or softened butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray or softened butter and set aside.
Roll out the premade pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 12 rounds, rerolling scraps as needed.
Press the dough rounds gently into the prepared muffin cups, ensuring they evenly cover the bottoms and sides.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels and crumble into small pieces once cooled.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon into the bottom of each pastry shell.
Pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling about 3/4 of the way to the top. Be careful not to overfill as the mixture will puff during cooking.
Sprinkle chopped parsley on top of each quiche for added flavor and color, if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the egg filling is set and lightly golden on top.
Remove the quiches from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Gently remove and transfer to a cooling rack or serve warm.
