Cut the puff pastry sheet into 9 even squares. Press each square of puff pastry into a seperate hole in the prepared muffin pan, letting the corners of the pastry point up.

Divide the cooked bacon and onion evenly across the pastry cases, then sprinkle cheese evenly on top. Pour the egg mixture evenly in over top. Be careful not to overfill the cups.

Place the tray into the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the quiche is cooked through and golden brown. The filling will puff up as it cooks, and this is ok!

Allow the quiches to cool for a few minutes in the muffin tray, then move to a wire rack to cool completely.

TOP TIPS

  • Be careful not to overfill your cups when pouring the egg mixture in. You'll have *just* enough for 9 quiches with the recipe as is. If all else fails, mix one more egg and a dash of cream together and use that to fill what you have remaining.
  • Feel free to add in some veggies if you'd like - tomato or capsicum / bell pepper would go well.
  • Feel free to double or triple this recipe for a larger crowd.
  • Great served warm or cold.  
  • Quiche reheats well, so if you want to make a batch at the start of the week and portion out for a few lunches that'll be great.  Just store in an airtight container.  You can also freeze this way.
