Mini Breakfast Quiches
These Mini Breakfast Quiches are the perfect single-serve muffin tin bakes for breakfast, brunch, or Mother’s Day! They’re also versatile, feel free to change them up. Did I mention a great grab-n-go breakfast too!
I posted this recipe two years ago but thought it deserved a repost and some updated pictures. The first time I made these yummy little muffin tin breakfast treats, my husband devoured them. Now I have to make them quite frequently. This is a great recipe to make if you’re having guests over for breakfast or brunch. Serve them with something sweet on the side, like pancakes, waffles, or french toast. They are also a great grab-and-go breakfast. Just wrap one in a paper towel and microwave for a few seconds.
EASY PREPPING
The longest part of the process in making these mini quiches is prepping the ingredients. It takes a few minutes, but you can actually prep them the day before, then it will take 5 minutes to prep and get them in the oven.
THE INGREDIENTS:
- 12 large eggs
- 1 cup diced ham or bacon, cooked
- 2 medium tomatoes, diced
- 5 green onions, chopped
- 2 cups fresh spinach leaves, coarsely chopped
- 1 cup mild cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup half & half
- Shredded cheddar cheese for serving
These mini quiches are SO versatile. You can add diced peppers, change up the meat, add some fresh herbs. The options are unlimited!
CAN I FREEZE MINI QUICHES?
Certainly. Make sure you wrap them securely, with waxed paper between the layers. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Reheat in a 300-degree oven just until heated through. Sprinkle with additional shredded cheese and heat for 5 more minutes. Serve.
Fill the muffin cups to almost full. Don’t worry. There’s no leavening in these so they won’t rise.

Description
These Mini Breakfast Quiches are the perfect single-serve muffin tin bakes for breakfast, brunch, or Mother’s Day! They’re also great for a grab-and-go breakfast! They are stuffed with great breakfast ingredients!
Ingredients
- 12 large eggs
- 1 cup cooked ham or bacon, drained and diced into small pieces
- 5 green onions diced
- 2 medium tomatoes diced
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped small
- 1/4 cup half and half
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mild cheddar cheese, shredded
- Additional cheese for topping
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease muffin tins and set aside.
- Whisk the eggs together in a large mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly.
- Fill muffin tin cups to almost full.
- Bake for approximately 20 minutes until tops are slightly spongy and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean.
- Sprinkle additional cheese on the tops.
- Immediately run a knife around each quiche and gently lift them out of the cups with a small offset spatula.
- Serve immediately.
Refrigerate leftovers. Quiches are best if eaten the day they are made.
Notes
- I used a bar of cheese and grated it on my box grater. Store-bought pre-shredded cheese comes with a waxy coating on the cheese. The bar cheese does not and tastes much better.
- Prep time includes cooking bacon and prepping vegetables and cheese.
