🛒 Ingredients
🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Ingredient preparation: wash and dry the cherry tomatoes, then cut them in half. Drain the mozzarella and cut into small pieces if necessary. Finely chop the fresh basil leaves.

  2. 2

    Mixture preparation: in a large bowl, beat the eggs with the liquid cream until you get a homogeneous and frothy mixture. Incorporate the grated parmesan (if used), salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Filling: lightly oil 12 cavities of a muffin tin. Evenly distribute the halved cherry tomatoes and mozzarella pieces at the bottom of each cavity.

  4. 4

    Molding and baking: preheat the oven to 180°C. Gently pour the quiche mixture over the filling, filling each cavity 3/4 full. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the mini quiches are well risen and nicely golden.

  5. 5

    Unmolding and finishing: let cool for 5 minutes before carefully unmolding. Generously sprinkle with chopped fresh basil just before serving.

Tips & Tricks
  • Draining: Drain the mozzarella well to avoid excess moisture
  • Cooking: Check doneness by inserting a knife tip that should come out clean
  • Unmolding: Wait for quiches to cool slightly for better handling
  • Parmesan: Its addition brings an extra salty and umami touch
  • Storage: Mini quiches keep perfectly for 2 days in the refrigerator
  • Serving: Ideal warm with salad or cold as appetizer
