Tips:

  • For a crispy quiche crust, pre-bake the tart shells for 5-10 minutes before filling them.
  • To prevent a soggy quiche, blind-bake the crust before filling it. This means pricking the bottom of the crust with a fork and baking it for 10-15 minutes before adding the filling.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Don't overfill the quiche cups. The filling should come about 2/3 of the way up the sides of the cups.
  • Bake the quiche cups until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. This usually takes about 25-30 minutes.
  • Let the quiche cups cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them hold their shape.
