CHEESY QUICHE

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray, for the muffin pan
3 strips thick-cut bacon, chopped
5 cups cornflakes, lightly crushed
1 1/2 cups grated white sharp Cheddar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 Vidalia onion, diced
1 teaspoon ground mustard powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 bunch collard greens, stemmed and finely chopped (about 3 cups)
1 cup half-and-half
4 large eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heavily spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crispy, about 6 minutes. Remove the bacon to a plate with a slotted spoon and pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of the bacon fat (see Cook's Note) into a large, heatproof bowl. To the bacon fat, add the crushed corn flakes and Cheddar. Stir the mixture together until it starts to clump. Press the mixture into the cups of the prepared muffin pan. Bake until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and cool slightly on a baking rack in the pan.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the onions and cook until softened and starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle on the mustard, salt, paprika and pepper. Stir the collard greens into the onion mixture. Continue cooking the greens, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Whisk together the half-and-half and eggs, then stir in the greens. Pour some of the egg mixture into each crust in the pan to come about three-quarters of the way up and sprinkle on the bacon. Bake until the egg has set and doesn't jiggle, 15 to 20 minutes. Set the mini quiches on a baking rack for 10 minutes to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

MINI QUICHES

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h45m

Yield 24 mini quiches

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
Kosher salt
2 sticks (1 cup) cold unsalted butter, cubed
Up to 1/2 cup ice water
4 ounces thick-cut bacon, diced
3 large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
1 cup crème fraîche
Ground white pepper
1/2 cup grated fontina cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup cream cheese, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place twenty-four 2 1/2-inch mini tart pans on a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a food processor, combine the flour and a good pinch of salt and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles sand. Transfer to a medium bowl then slowly drizzle in enough of the ice water, folding with a wooden spoon, until the water is incorporated and a shaggy dough forms-all the water may not be needed; be careful not to overwork the dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and form into a disc. Roll the dough to 1/4 inch thick and use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 24 discs. Lay 1 disc in each prepared tart pan, pressing the dough firmly into the bottom and up the sides. Transfer to the freezer to firm up, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the bacon. Cook, stirring frequently, until browned and crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined tray to cool for 5 minutes.
  • In another medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, 1/2 cup of the crème fraîche and a pinch each of salt and white pepper. Transfer to a liquid measuring cup for easy pouring.
  • To assemble: Put a teaspoon of the bacon bits and a teaspoon of the fontina in the bottom of each tart shell. Top with a sprinkle of chives. You will have some bacon leftover to use as garnish. Pour the custard evenly into the tart shells and bake until the quiches are puffed and the crust is golden brown, about 35 minutes. Rotate the pan 180 degrees halfway through baking. Remove from the oven and immediately remove the quiches from the tart pans to cool on a wire rack. This will ensure a crisp crust.
  • Meanwhile, in a third medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, the remaining 1/2 cup crème fraîche and a pinch each of salt and white pepper. Whip with a hand mixer until light and airy, about 2 minutes. Dollop onto the cooled quiches and sprinkle with the remaining bacon bits and chives.

Tips:

  • Prep Your Ingredients: Before you start cooking, take the time to prep all of your ingredients. This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the taste of your quiche. Use fresh, high-quality ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't Overbeat the Eggs: When mixing the eggs for the quiche filling, don't overbeat them. Overbeaten eggs will make the quiche tough.
  • Bake the Quiche Until It Is Set: The quiche is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with liquid or uncooked egg on it, the quiche needs to bake for a little longer.
  • Let the Quiche Cool Before Serving: Once the quiche is baked, let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the quiche to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Texas party quiches are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
