Ingredients
Vegetables
- 2 cups broccoli florets, cut into bite sized pieces (or 1 cup cooked broccoli)
Wet Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (your favorite)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Cheese & Seasonings
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese (or your favorite)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat & Cook Broccoli: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli florets and cook for 5 minutes or until tender. Remove skillet from heat.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a large measuring cup or bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, grated cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
- Assemble Quiches: Generously spray 12 silicone muffin cups or a muffin pan with cooking spray. Evenly divide the cooked broccoli into the muffin cups.
- Add Egg Mixture: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the broccoli in each muffin cup.
- Bake: Bake the mini crustless quiches in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the quiches are set with a slight wobble in the center.
- Cool & Serve: Remove from oven and cool quiches on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully remove from muffin molds and serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Use prepped broccoli in a microwaveable bag for a time-saving shortcut. Cook according to package instructions, then chop when cool enough to handle.
- These mini quiches are excellent for meal prep breakfast or brunch and keep up to 5 days in the refrigerator stored in an airtight container.
- For a lighter version, use skim milk and low-fat cheese.
- Customize by adding your favorite cooked vegetables, greens, or meats like ham, bacon, or sausage to the egg mixture before baking.
