Ingredients
- 1 sheet (14 oz, store-bought, thawed) Pie crust
- 4 large Eggs
- 1/2 cup Milk
- 1 cup (fresh, chopped) Spinach
- 1/2 cup (crumbled) Feta cheese
- 1/4 cup (finely diced) Onion
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/8 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface and cut into 8 equal squares (or use a biscuit cutter for 8 circles), then press each into a muffin tin cavity, making sure the crust is pressed into the bottom and up the sides.
- Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp black pepper, then stir in 1 cup fresh chopped spinach and 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese until combined.
- Step 3: Divide the egg mixture evenly among the 8 prepared crusts in the muffin tin, filling each about 3/4 full, then top each with a sprinkle of 1/4 cup finely diced onion, and bake for 20-25 minutes until the centers are set and the edges are golden brown.

Can I substitute ingredients in Fun-Size Mini Quiches?

How do I scale Fun-Size Mini Quiches for a different number of people?
The recipe is written for 8 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 8). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.
