This week for February’s Hot Breakfast Month we are focusing on breakfasts that take a bit more time. These recipes are perfect for weekend brunches or family get-togethers. Every year for Christmas, I host a big family brunch. These mini quiches are always a huge hit. I will often prepare them on weekends as well, since I can customize each quiche for every member of the household.

Every year for Christmas, I host a big family brunch. These mini quiches are always a huge hit. I will often prepare them on weekends as well, since I can customize each quiche for every member of the household.

I’m going to share with you several of my go-to mix-in ideas, but feel free to experiment. You can even play around with spices and seasonings. You really can’t go wrong. You can even go mix-in-free and have just plain quiches. That doesn’t really wow me, but my toddler certainly approves.

Mini Quiche Recipe

This recipe fills one muffin tray. If you need to double the recipe, be sure to cook one try at a time – otherwise unevenness may occur.

Ingredients

  • Cooking Spray
  • 8 Farm Fresh Eggs
  • 2/3 c. Whole Milk
  • 2/3 c. Half & Half
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 3/4 c. Cheddar Cheese

Optional Mix-In Ideas

  • Bacon
  • Cherry Tomatoes
  • Asparagus
  • Broccoli
  • Sauteed Onions
  • Sauteed Peppers
  • Sausage

Every year for Christmas, I host a big family brunch. These mini quiches are always a huge hit. I will often prepare them on weekends as well, since I can customize each quiche for every member of the household.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly spray a 12-cup mini muffin pans with homemade cooking spray. Chop mix-ins coarsely and set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, half & half, salt, and pepper. Add a small amount of mix-ins and a bit of cheese to each of the cups. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese and mix-ins until the cups are about 2/3 full. Sprinkle a bit more mix-ins and cheese to the top of each quiche.

Bake until the tops are puffed and just beginning to brown (about 15 minutes). Enjoy while still hot.

I am a non-traditional homesteader. What is a non-traditional homesteader? I'd like to think we are the people who don't fit the mold. I am a busy mom on a small bit of property with not a lot of financial resources, but I am figuring out how to live the life I want. A homesteader's life.

Welcome!

My name is Jessica Lane. I live a nearly self-sufficient lifestyle with my three beautiful children on 5 1/2 acres in Maine. We raise Nigerian Dwarf goats, ducks, and chickens, and we grow as much food as we can. What we can’t grow or produce ourselves we barter for. If we can homestead where we live, what’s stopping you?
