Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by rolling out your pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Use a 4-inch round cookie cutter to cut out circles, then gently press each circle into the bottom and sides of a greased muffin tin. Pop the tin in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
  2. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) while the crusts chill.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and cream until fully combined. Add salt, pepper, and cayenne. Stir in spinach, onion, ham, and cheese.
  4. Remove muffin tin from the freezer. Fill each crust about three-quarters full with the egg mixture.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until edges are golden and centers are firm.
  6. Cool the muffin tin for about 10 minutes, then carefully lift out each quiche and serve.
