Mini Cheese and Ham Quiches

Miniatures always seem to steal the show at potlucks. Why? Because they travel well and rarely require utensils. These mini cheese and ham quiche delicacies fit the bill: they've got the texture of a creamy custard and the familiar flavor that everyone loves. Bring this delightful finger food to your next picnic or soirée and watch them disappear - no forks needed.

Mini Quiche Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375F and spray a mini muffin pan with nonstick spray.
2. If using store-bought pie quiche crusts, unwrap them. If using homemade, roll out pie crust to 1/8-inch thick. Using a 3- or 4-inch cookie cutter, cut out 24 circles.
3. Place each dough circle into each mini muffin space and press down into the pan. Use a light touch and don't press all the way to the bottom of the pan to avoid tearing the dough.
4. In a bowl, combine the eggs, milk, cream, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until smooth and set aside.
5. Divide the ham among each mini quiche and top with a sprinkling of grated cheese.
6. Transfer the egg mixture to a jug or cup with a pouring spout and add enough of the mixture to each quiche so that it’s level with the top and not spilling over.
7. Place the pan on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Bake for about 35 minutes or until the quiche mixture is set. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
