I love to have different varieties of mini quiche in my freezer for quick snacks. Bake the mini quiche and let them cool completely. Transfer to the freezer and flash freeze, until hard, for about 1 hour. Then place them in an airtight freezer container for up to 3 to 4 months. To reheat, pop them in a mini muffin tin and bake at 400 degrees F for 5 to 10 minutes, or until heated through.
Mini Quiche Filling Ideas
These three varieties of Mini Quiche are always the most popular at parties.
- Spinach Mini Quiche
- Bacon and Cheese Mini Quiche
- Broccoli Cheddar Mini Quiche
But, you can get creative and make your favorite combinations – just make sure all your ingredients are cooked before you add them so you don’t end up with soggy quiche!

Can you tell me what is a pastry round?
Thanks!
Hi Laura! In the instructions in step 2, I use the term “pastry round” to refer to the circle of pastry I cut out from the larger crust.
