Classic Mini Quiche Lorraine with Bacon and Gruyere

Kicking off the weekend with a batch of these Classic Mini Quiche Lorraine with Bacon and Gruyere is my idea of a perfect morning. There’s something about the combination of crispy bacon, creamy eggs, and nutty Gruyere that feels both indulgent and comforting, especially when baked into bite-sized portions that are just as perfect for a brunch spread as they are for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted for lightness
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 cup ice water
- 4 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
- 3 large farm-fresh eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream, rich and velvety
- 1/2 cup Gruyere cheese, freshly grated
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt, finely ground
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly cracked
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated for warmth
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin.
- In a food processor, pulse the sifted flour and cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Tip: Keeping the butter cold ensures a flaky crust.
- Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, pulsing until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness and cut into circles to fit your mini muffin tin. Press each circle into the tin.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg until smooth. Stir in the crumbled bacon and grated Gruyere.
- Divide the filling evenly among the dough-lined cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Tip: A small measuring cup or spoon helps keep things neat.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the quiches are puffed and golden, and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Tip: Let them cool slightly in the tin for easier removal.
The result is a delightful contrast of textures—flaky, buttery crust giving way to a creamy, savory filling with pops of bacon. Serve these mini quiches warm, with a drizzle of hot sauce or a side of fresh fruit for a bright contrast.
