This recipe was sent to me by my mum,who thought that her beloved grandchildren might enjoy them! The first time I made them they didn't even get a chance to go cold,as the children and I devoured them.I have since made them to take to our local playgroup end of term party,and once again,children and parents alike loved them.They are so simple and delicious,and a great way to get some extra veggies into your children.Perfect for picnics and lunchbags.I often pack a few in a tub for when we go shopping for child friendly snacks.I should imagine that these would be good served warm with pre dinner drinks or as part of a finger buffet.

    When I read these were quiche like I just had to make them for breakfast LOL. YUMMY. I used a madeleine pan which I kind of overfilled a bit LOL Then the remaining mix went into a muffin tin , these ones stuck very badly but I used my really old tin when I should of used my new one. I used about 4 or 5 baby carrots instead of a large. We really enjoyed these. We enjoyed them . Made for Zaar Stars

    These are yummy little bites. They are more like mini, crustless quiches than mini muffins. I wish I would have used paper liners or a non-stick pan as mine did stick quite a bit. I baked them at 375 for 28 minutes but would bake for 30 next time. I think there is huge potential to change out some ingredients depending on your mood. For instance, I might try prosciutto instead of bacon and roasted red pepper instead of carrot and add Italian seasoning for an Italian style bite. Perhaps I would use corn muffin mix instead of flour and add jack/cheddar combo and green chilies for a little Tex/Mex flair. They would also be great with a little seafood and Old Bay. The possibilities are endless. Thanks for posting such a delicious and versatile recipe.

    These are wonderful. I made as a out-the-door breakfast for myself and I'm so glad I did. I didn't get nearly as many as you did - only 12 but that's because I wanted them to be more substantial to fill me up in the morning. I didn't have to adjust my cooking time at all. Love these!
