Ingredients
Scale
Quiche Filling
- 95 g tin of tuna, drained
- 3 eggs
- ½ cup of milk
- ½ cup frozen peas
- ½ cup frozen corn
- ¾ cup grated cheddar cheese
- 2 spring onions, chopped
Pastry
- 2 sheets puff pastry, defrosted
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 220 degrees Celsius (428°F) to ensure it is ready for baking the quiches.
- Prepare Filling: In a bowl, thoroughly mix together the eggs, milk, grated cheddar cheese, drained tuna, frozen peas, frozen corn, and chopped spring onions until well combined.
- Prepare Pastry Shells: Cut circles from the defrosted puff pastry sheets sized to fit your muffin pans. The pastry does not need to be molded up the sides of the muffin cups.
- Fill Pastry: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the prepared egg mixture into each pastry circle placed in the muffin pan, distributing evenly among the molds.
- Bake: Bake the quiches in the preheated oven at 220 degrees Celsius (428°F) for 20 minutes or until the quiches turn golden brown and the filling is fully set.
- Cool: Remove the quiches from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Freezer Friendly: These quiches can be frozen flat, then transferred to a container for longer storage.
- Want more flavour? Try using different flavored tuna tins such as those infused with herbs or spices.
