Bacon, Caramelized Onion and Sweet Potato Mini Quiches
These crustless mini quiches are full of bacon, caramelized onions and sweet potatoes, making them a delicious salty, sweet and savory quick, on-the-go breakfast option.
Ingredients
- 1 medium sweet potato
- 1 medium onion
- 1 lb. bacon cooked and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3/4 c shredded cheddar cheese
- 12 eggs
- 1/2 c heavy whipping cream
- 1 1/2 t Simple Seasoning Blend or salt and pepper to taste
- 1-2 green onion stalks chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Bake the sweet potato, (I microwaved mine for 6 minutes on high.) Allow it to cool until it's easy to handle. Remove peel and dice.
- Cut bacon into bite-sized pieces and pan fry it until just done. Remove from heat and drain.
- Slice the onion and caramelize it by frying it slowly with a little bacon grease (or other cooking oil) over low/medium heat. Remove from heat and drain.
- Distribute the sweet potato and bacon evenly into 12 muffin tins. (I use a stoneware muffin pan without paper liners. If you're using a traditional metal muffin pan, spray with non-stick cooking spray first.)
- Whisk the 12 eggs, heavy whipping cream and seasoning blend together. Pour into the muffin tins, distributing evenly.
- Sprinkle with the greens from the green onion.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes. (If you use a traditional metal muffin tin, check at 20 minutes. It will cook faster.)
- Serve warm or cool completely and store them in the refrigerator.
