Ingredients
  

  • 1 prepared crust
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups fresh spinach chopped
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • ½ cup Kalamata olives sliced
  • 1 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 4 each large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness.
  3. Use a round cutter or a glass (about 3-4 inches in diameter) to cut circles from the dough. Press each circle into the cavities of a standard muffin tin, trimming any excess dough. Prick the bottoms with a fork.
  4. Bake the crusts for 8 minutes, then set aside.
  5. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the spinach for 2-3 minutes, until wilted. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, olives and feta cheese and remove from the heat.
  6. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  7. Evenly divide the spinach filling among the pre-baked crusts in the muffin tin.
  8. Follow with the egg mixture into each crust, filling just to the top but not overflowing.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and the tops are lightly golden.
  10. Let the mini quiches cool for 5 minutes in the tin before carefully removing them with a small knife or spatula.

Notes

  • If using a refrigerated pie crust, then please use the package directions to blind bake the crust.
  • You can substitute another cheese for the feta. Swiss or Gruyere go well with the spinach mix.
  • If using a frozen spinach, make sure to thaw and press out the excess water, otherwise it will be too runny and the quiche may not set properly.
