Mini quiches are perfect for your next get-together. Caramelized onion and bacon are a great combo paired with crisp crust. These are a great make-ahead too - just reheat them in the oven to serve. They're great served warm or at room temp. Ingredients:
1 recipe of your favorite two-crust pie crust recipe or 1 pkg. pre-made pie crust sheets (2 sheets) |
2 tsp. oil |
1 large onion, finely chopped |
4 oz. bacon, finely chopped |
2 tsp. whole-grain mustard |
couple pinches black pepper |
2 eggs |
1/2 c. milk |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease two round mini-muffin pans (24 holes, total).
2. Roll out dough to about 1/8 inch thick, or if using package dough, unroll sheets. Cut 24 rounds total from dough with 3-inch cutter. Line each mini-muffin tin with a dough circle. Cover with dishtowel and set aside while preparing filling.
3. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add onion, cover and cook over medium-low heat for 30 minutes, or until golden (caramelized onion is slow-cooked to bring out the sweetness, so don't rush this step). Transfer to a bowl to cool.
4. Add bacon to the pan and cook until crisp. Mix with the onion. Add mustard and season with pepper. Place a small amount of mixture in each pastry shell, using all of mixture.
5. In a small bowl or cup with spout, whisk eggs; add mild and whisk until combined. Pour a small amount over each pastry shell over onion/bacon mixture.
6. Bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until puffed and golden. Serve warm or at room temperature.
