Greek Chicken GyrosEasy Quiche Cups

Directions

1. Prepare the Muffin Tin:
   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper muffin cups.
2. Shape the Dough:
   Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface. Using a cookie cutter or a glass, cut circles slightly larger than the muffin tin holes. Gently press each circle into the muffin cups, shaping it to fit and create a small crust base for each quiche.
3. Mix the Custard:
   In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Add Fillings:
   Evenly distribute the cheese, diced bacon or ham, and chopped vegetables into each muffin cup, layering over the dough base.
5. Pour the Custard:
   Carefully pour the egg and milk mixture over the fillings, making sure each cup is nearly full but not overflowing.
6. Bake the Quiche Cups:
   Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the custard is set and the tops are lightly golden.
7. Cool and Remove:
   Remove from the oven and let the quiche cups cool for a few minutes. Run a small knife around the edges of each cup to loosen them from the pan, then carefully lift them out.
8. Serve and Enjoy:
   Serve warm or at room temperature. These quiche cups are portable, making them perfect for packed lunches or brunch gatherings.
