BACON-CHEESE QUICHE



Bacon-Cheese Quiche image

This versatile dish goes from brunch buffet to dinner table in a snap and is great with a leafy green salad. The flaky crust and custard filling make it a perfect vehicle for a variety of mix-ins. Baking the crust before adding the filling, known as blind baking, ensures it won't get soggy. Our favorite pie dough recipe is Basic Pie Crust.

CHEESY QUICHE

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray, for the muffin pan
3 strips thick-cut bacon, chopped
5 cups cornflakes, lightly crushed
1 1/2 cups grated white sharp Cheddar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 Vidalia onion, diced
1 teaspoon ground mustard powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 bunch collard greens, stemmed and finely chopped (about 3 cups)
1 cup half-and-half
4 large eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heavily spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crispy, about 6 minutes. Remove the bacon to a plate with a slotted spoon and pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of the bacon fat (see Cook's Note) into a large, heatproof bowl. To the bacon fat, add the crushed corn flakes and Cheddar. Stir the mixture together until it starts to clump. Press the mixture into the cups of the prepared muffin pan. Bake until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and cool slightly on a baking rack in the pan.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the onions and cook until softened and starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle on the mustard, salt, paprika and pepper. Stir the collard greens into the onion mixture. Continue cooking the greens, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Whisk together the half-and-half and eggs, then stir in the greens. Pour some of the egg mixture into each crust in the pan to come about three-quarters of the way up and sprinkle on the bacon. Bake until the egg has set and doesn't jiggle, 15 to 20 minutes. Set the mini quiches on a baking rack for 10 minutes to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.
