Method
-
Thaw pastry and pre-heat oven to 210 degrees.
-
Lightly grease with spray oil a 12 cup muffin tin (standard size).
-
Use a jar or cutter to cut out 4 circles from each thawed pastry sheet, large enough to line muffin cups.
-
Alternatively, just cut the pastry square into equal quarters which will give the quiches a more rustic appearance.
-
Once all muffin cups are lined with pastry, make a small cross in the bottom of each pastry cup with a bread knife, for even cooking.
-
Fry mushrooms in butter and garlic until golden brown, set aside.
-
Cook bacon and combine with mushrooms.
-
Evenly divide mixture between all 12 cups.
-
Combine eggs, cream and salt and pepper in a jug and whisk together.
-
Pour egg mixture evenly between all 12 cups and top with grated cheese.
-
Cook in pre-heated oven for 25 minutes or until pastry browned and cheese melted.
