A tasty, easy, and delicious Mini Breakfast Quiche, which is perfect any time of the day. 

Now that kids are starting school again this quick and versatile dish is perfect.

Not only that you can use ingredients that your family likes, but you can store these yummy quiches in the fridge for a fast breakfast before they leave.

Also, this makes an incredible breakfast or bench idea for adults as well. If you have any leftover sausages, or a few bags of cheese open with just a few tablespoons in each this could be a perfect way to use it up.

I know that by the end of the week and just before I go shopping there is always a bit of this and that. Don’t you just love those “Emphy Your Fridge Day”? I sure love them!

Mini Breakfast Quiche

Yield: 6 SERVINGS

A tasty recipe for Mini Breakfast Quiche

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 pie crust (if frozen and store-bought, defrost and use only one for this recipe)
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter + for greasing
  • 6 to 8 breakfast pre-cooked sausages
  • 4 to 6 eggs, mixed
  • 1/8 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Small Pinch of baking soda
  • 1 cup cheese blend, large shredded
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter

Flaky Homemade Pie Crust:

  • 1 large egg
  • 2 + 1/2 tablespoons ice water
  • 1 + 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup shortening, chilled
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced into small cubes

Garnish option:

  • Green onions or Chopped fresh parsley
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients for the pie crust or use store-bought. If you are using store-bough make sure it is defrosted in the fridge overnight.

Flaky Homemade Pie Crust

  1. Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and shortening.
  2. Using two forks, or pastry cutter, cut the butter and shortening into the mixture until it looks almost like a coarse meal. Bits of butter are welcome.
  3. Measure about 1 cup of water and add ice. Stir it around and wait for a minute until ice starts melting, then measure water– since you need cold water. Drizzle the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and stir with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon after every tablespoon is added. Do not add any more water than you need to add. Also, you should stop adding water when the dough begins to form large clumps.
  4. Transfer the pie dough to a well-floured work surface. The dough should come together quickly and should not feel too sticky on the touch. However, using floured hands, fold the dough into itself until the flour is fully incorporated into the fats. Form it into a ball and divide dough in half, then flatten each half into 1-inch thick discs using your hands.
  5. Wrap each tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  6. After the dough has chilled for about 2 hours, take a cookie cutter or a large enough cup/glass to fit your muffin tin cup and cut the dough out. My muffin tin is large, so I used a large cup and only six tarts, which could be doubled if you used a smaller muffin tin.

Mini Breakfast Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 375F/190C
  2. Mix eggs, and add a pinch of salt and black pepper, mix it, and set aside.
  3. Slice sausages, and measure cheese.
  4. Butter each muffin tin even if the tin is Non-Stick. I used Jumbo Muffin Tin.
  5. Place a mini cut-out dough into the muffin tin cup and press a bit.
  6. Using a fork dock the pie crust, which is the slight stabbing of the dough for about 4-5 times with a fork to keep it from getting puffy.
  7. Add sausages, then pour mixed eggs over each. Try to go halfway, then you can refill until each has the same about of eggs.
  8. Add a bit more shredded cheese on top.
  9. Bake between 18-20 minutes in the middle rack of your oven.
  10. Allow it to cool down for 5 minutes, then use a spoon to go around and pop them put.

Notes

You can use different cheese. I prefer large shreds of cheese blend; large shreds because it's fantastic with these sausages and eggs.

Time will be wary depending if you are making a pie crust using store-bought.

You can use smaller muffin tin which you could possibly make 12 Quiches instead of 6 jumbos.

If you have any leftover dough, use it or wrap it well and keep it refrigerated.

You can use any sausages or pre-cooked and sliced bacon.

Waffle Breakfast Board

Waffle Breakfast Board

A Waffle Breakfast Board would not be complete without the signature sides of luscious fruits, yogurt, homemade granola, and jam.

Waffle Breakfast Board

My family loves a quick and easy meal, especially during the weekend, so we have been making some type of board every Saturday or Sunday.

This week we decided to create this graceful and gorgeous spread with the help of Danone. I was so enthralled by the way it turned out.

It is bright, tasty and popping with colors. There is truly something for everyone.

Danone has been a part of my family for a long time, and I continue to buy their products for myself all the time.

Their products are an amazing snack and are definitely a quick on-the-go breakfast, school, or work lunch essential.

Waffle Breakfast Board

With that being said, I’ve created many phenomenal desserts using Activia® and Two Good® yogurts, such as parfaits, making incredible salad dressing, using it in my baked goodies, and smoothies.

It is such a versatile product packed with delicious ingredients. I also picked up Stok® Cold Brew and So Delicious® Coconutmilk Creamer.

Also, if you spend $20 on participating products you will receive a $5 Publix gift card and a chance to win the grand prize, a Vitamix Blender.

Products

I love the Save the Day Stack the Savings promotion at Publix because everyone loves an amazing deal, and Publix definitely has it.

You can purchase so many delicious products that you likely already use, so check it out. Do not miss this excellent opportunity, because it is a great one!

In addition to my Waffle Breakfast Board in the morning, if you genuinely love a good iced coffee and silky creamer, Publix has your back.

Well, I need my coffee hot every single morning, but my college son adores his coffee iced, no exceptions, with a generous amount of creamer.

Most of the time when he is home, I get him excellent Stok Black Unsweetened cold brew coffee.

As well as a complementary sweetener such as the rich and creamy coconutmilk creamer from So Delicious.

They are both qualifying products for the Save the Day Stack the Savings promotion at Publix.

Creamer from So Delicious

Nevertheless, this iced coffee and creamer naturally make an outstanding addition to our Waffle Breakfast Board!

Easy and Quick Salad Dressing

When it comes to lunch or dinner, one of my favorite multi-purpose salad dressings is this incredibly creamy dressing using Two Good plain low-fat yogurt.

I sincerely love it with romaine lettuce, radishes, and cherry tomatoes.

Salad with Yogurt Lemon Dressing

However, if you have some tomatoes and cucumbers, this dressing instantly makes one delicious salad. Perhaps use it to make a pasta salad.

Also, serve it on the platter with vegetables like peppers, carrots, cucumber, etc., you would be surprised how tasty it is.

Yogurt Lemon Dressing

  • 1/2 cup Two Good plain low-fat yogurt
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp. dried parsley
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Salt to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Mix ingredients in one medium-size bowl. Set aside for about 15 minutes to allow all flavors to develop.
