Mini Spinach & Feta Quiches
👩🍳 Step-by-step preparation
1️⃣ Prepare the base
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Cut circles from the shortcrust pastry and place them in mini tartlet or muffin tins. Prick the base lightly with a fork to prevent them from puffing up during baking.
2️⃣ Sauté the spinach
In a hot pan, wilt the spinach for a few minutes to dry it out.
If using frozen spinach, let it thaw and then squeeze out all the water.
3️⃣ Prepare the filling
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the cream.
Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg. Mix well until smooth.
4️⃣ Fill the tart shells
Distribute the spinach evenly in each tart shell, add a little crumbled feta cheese, then gently pour the quiche filling over the top.
5️⃣ Bake
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the mini quiches are golden brown and slightly puffed.
6️⃣ Serve and enjoy
Let them cool slightly before unmolding. Serve them warm, at room temperature, or even cold, as you prefer! 📋 Practical Information
