Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 large eggs
2/3 cup whole milk
¼ cup half-and-half
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
Pinch ground nutmeg (optional)
1 1/2 cups mix-ins of choice: See below for suggestions and ingredient notes for a broccoli bacon version
2/3 cup grated Gruyère cheese (or swap fontina, sharp cheddar, or smoked mozzarella)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Cooked (crumbled bacon)
Chopped and sautéed broccoli
Caramelized onions
Cubed leftover ham
Roasted vegetables (roughly chopped)

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a deep 9-inch pie dish with nonstick spray.
  • Prepare any mix-ins (see recipe notes for a broccoli bacon version and the blog post above for more suggestions).
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half-and-half, salt, pepper, mustard, and nutmeg.
  • Scatter the mix-ins evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
  • Sprinkle the cheese on top.
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture into the dish. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the chives over the top.
  • Bake the quiche on the baking sheet until the center is set, about 35 minutes. It should look puffed and golden at the edges, and when a thin, sharp knife is inserted in the center, the center should be cooked through without visible liquid. Let cool a few minutes. Cut into big wedges. Enjoy warm.

CRUSTLESS BREAKFAST QUICHE MUFFINS



Crustless Breakfast Quiche Muffins image

Really, after you have the quiche mix down you can replace the other ingredients with whatever you like. My husband happens to like the sausage and cheese. Weight Watchers: 3 points per muffin when using low fat sausage, cheese and baking mix and fat free milk.

4 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup swiss cheese (or whatever type of cheese you prefer)
10 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (or sausage)
salt and black pepper
1 dash nutmeg, to taste
onion (saute in butter first) (optional)
broccoli (saute with the onions until soft, but not soggy) (optional)

various other seasonings and spices (Garlic is particularly good in this dish.) (optional)

Steps:

  • Beat eggs.
  • Mix in heavy cream and seasonings.
  • Add cheese and meat.
  • *ForMuffins: It's best to use Texas Sized muffin tins.
  • Grease liberally with cooking spray and fill only 1/2-3/4 full.
  • They will rise quite a bit, but settle as they cool.
  • Bake at 375F degrees; start with 20 minutes though the original poster has had to cook up to 35 minutes.
  • They get darker as they cook.
  • This is NORMAL.
  • *ForQuiche: pour mixture into greased pie plate and bake at 375 degrees for approxamately 20-25 minutes.
