Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and cold, cubed butter using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Using a round cookie cutter or the rim of a glass, cut out circles and press them into a greased muffin tin to form the tart shells.
Prick the bottom of each tart shell with a fork to prevent puffing and bake the empty shells for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Sprinkle a small amount of cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, spinach, and onion into each tart shell.
Pour the egg mixture over the fillings, being careful not to overfill. Leave a small gap at the top as the mixture will puff up slightly during cooking.
Bake the quiche tarts in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the centers are just set and the tops are lightly golden.
Allow the tarts to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the muffin tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.
