How to Make Awesome Mini Spinach Quiche Bites

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. If using pre-made mini tart shells, skip to step 5. Otherwise, on a lightly floured surface, use a 1 1/2-inch biscuit cutter to cut 12 rounds from thawed pie crust.
  3. Gently press each round into the bottom and up the sides of ungreased mini muffin cups. Repeat with a second pie crust if needed.
  4. In a medium skillet, cook 4 slices bacon until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside; reserve bacon grease.
  5. Add 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion to the skillet with the reserved bacon grease. Cook for 5 minutes, or until softened, stirring constantly. Set aside.
  6. In a medium bowl, crumble the cooked bacon. Add the cooked onions.
  7. Whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  8. Add 10 ounces fresh spinach (squeeze out excess water after chopping) to the egg mixture. Stir well to combine.
  9. Add the crumbled bacon and onions to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
  10. Evenly divide the mixture among the prepared mini tart shells.
  11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown.
  12. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
  13. Gently loosen the quiches from the pan using a knife or offset spatula.
  14. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
