Easy Crustless Mini Vegetable Quiche Recipe
Everyone has their favorite flavor combinations for omelets. Needing to simplify breakfast on busy mornings, I began using this method for baking them in the oven so everyone would be satisfied. I love peeking at them while they bake as they puff up like beautiful little golden soufflés. After removing from the oven, they will settle a bit. Baking eggs this way allows you to cook for vegetarians and meat eaters alike all at the same time. Sprinkle cubed ham, cooked and crumbled bacon or sausage in half of the mini quiche and leave the rest meat free. The best part is everyone gets to eat together. It doesn’t get any better than that.

Hi Melissa, can this be made in mini muffin tray? How many do you think it would make in the recipe as is?
You can make these bite size. My guess is 24 although that could vary. The baking time will be less too, so check halfway through baking.
Wow, these are the Best! I followed the recipe to a T. The only thing I did different is subbed green bell pepper with zucchini from my garden. Thank you for this amazing recipe!!
Hi Beth, I love that you added zucchini, thank you!
