Instructions
Make It Now:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, combine the broccoli, cheese, eggs, flour, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined.
- Spoon mixture evenly into the muffin tin, filling each hole generously over the top.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, until set and golden. Let cool for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of each one to help loosen from the muffin tin.
Freeze For Later: Bake and cool completely. Store in an air-tight freezer bag, squeezing out any excess air. Freeze for up to 1 month.
Prepare From Frozen: Wrap a frozen mini quiche in a moist paper towel and microwave in 20-30 second increments until warmed through. Or thaw in the fridge and microwave for 20-30 seconds to heat up.
Notes/Tips
- If you don’t have a mini muffin pan, you can still make these in a regular-sized pan. Just cook them a little longer until they are set in the middle.
- These can stick to a metal pan, so I’ve found the best way to clean it is to let it soak. Then, use a sponge to get into each part of the pan. Using a silicone pan would be much easier clean up, if you have one!
