Quiche muffins are a fun and different way to enjoy quiche! They’re perfect for meal prep, on-the-go breakfast or freezing.
Ingredients
• 4 low carb carb tortillas *I use Hero tortillas
• 6 eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 1 cup broccoli, chopped
• 1/4 of a red bell pepper, diced
• 1/4 of a yellow bell pepper, diced
• 1/4 of an orange bell pepper, diced
• 1 green onion, sliced
• 1 cup of ham, cubed
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese
The filling for these Quiche Muffins is the same filling that is used for my Keto-friendly Ham & Cheese Crustless Quiche which can be found in my cookbook.
Directions
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add in the broccoli, onions and peppers and sauté for 5-10 minutes until tender.
- Remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Brush some water on the edge of a tortilla and then roll it up loosely. Pinch the seams to seal.
6. Trim the ends off and then cut it into thirds.
7. Grease a muffin tin and then place each tortilla roll-up in a muffin cup.
8. Repeat with the remaining tortillas until you have all 12 muffin cups filled.
9. Whisk the eggs and heavy cream in a large bowl and then stir in the cooked veggies, cubed ham, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
10. Pour the egg mixture into the middle of each tortilla roll-up. *It is ok if the mixture goes around the outer edge of the tortilla.
11. Top each one with the Colby Jack cheese and then bake for about 35 minutes.
