– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– ½ cup diced ham
– ½ cup chopped green onions
– 4 eggs
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and diced cold unsalted butter. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
2. Add the beaten egg and mix until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a mini muffin tin.
4. Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface and cut out circles slightly larger than the muffin tin holes. Press the dough circles into the prepared tin, forming mini crusts.
5. Divide the shredded cheddar cheese, diced ham, and chopped green onions among the mini crusts.
6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
7. Carefully pour the egg mixture into each mini crust, filling almost to the top.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the quiches are set and lightly golden on top.
9. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
