Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 6 slices Bacon
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Shredded Gruyere cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives
- as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 6 equal squares, making a total of 12 squares.
Press each puff pastry square into a muffin tin cup, gently molding it to form a crust. Allow the corners of the pastry to drape slightly outside each cup.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and let cool slightly, then crumble into small pieces.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Sprinkle a pinch of shredded Gruyere cheese and crumbled bacon into the bottom of each pastry-lined muffin cup.
Pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling about 3/4 full. Be careful not to overfill to avoid spills.
Top each cup with a final sprinkle of shredded cheese and a small pinch of fresh chives for added flavor and color.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the egg filling is set and the tops are golden brown.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the quiche cups to cool for 5 minutes. Then carefully remove each cup from the tin.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Quiche Lorraine Cups!
