Remember my perfect quiche recipe? I’ve had so many questions and requests for a mini version! Today we’re making mini quiche, a scaled down and simpler version of its full-size parent. Often underrated, quiche—no matter what size—is fantastic for lunch, dinner, Easter, baby showers, bridal showers, potlucks, tea parties, and so much more. Even as a small family, quiche is our go-to food when we need quick and fulfilling recipe that’s delicious and adaptable to our available ingredients. As a bonus, kids love to help cutting the pie crust into mini circles. Let’s continue to get the kids in the kitchen!

Mini Quiche Recipe Ingredients
A quick overview of the ingredients you need:
Can I Skip the Pie Crust?
You can make crustless mini quiches from this recipe. Spray your mini muffin pan or regular size muffin pan with nonstick spray—it works much better than butter here—and pour the filling directly into the pan. The bake time is a little shorter. See my recipe note below. I also have this Crustless Veggie Quiche, Easy Frittata Recipe, and Breakfast Egg Muffins recipe. These are wonderful naturally gluten free alternatives.
Mini Quiche Flavors & Add-Ins
Now it’s time to bake! Follow the mini quiche baking instructions in the recipe below and right before baking, top with your add-ins. Remember, it’s best to add your add-ins/flavors on top of the mini quiches instead of mixing them right into the egg mixture.
Ham, Swiss, & Scallion (pictured): 2/3 cup cooked and cubed ham, 2 Tablespoons chopped scallion, 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese. Ham, Spinach, & White Cheddar (in video): 2/3 cup cooked and cubed ham, 2-3 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh spinach, 1/2 cup white cheddar cheese. Bacon, Spinach, & White Cheddar (pictured): 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon (5-6 slices), 1/4 cup sautéed chopped spinach (I sautéed it in a little leftover bacon grease for 2 minutes), 1/2 cup white cheddar cheese. Veggie & Feta: 1/4 cup chopped fresh mushrooms, 1/4 cup chopped fresh bell pepper, 1/4 cup diced tomato, 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese.
