Air Fryer Muffin Tin Mini Quiche Recipe Tips

  • Use Phyllo Dough or Pre-made Pastry: For a quick and easy crust, use phyllo dough or pre-made pastry. Brush it lightly with oil to help it crisp up.
  • Prepare Filling Evenly: Make sure to evenly distribute your fillings (like cheese, vegetables, and meats) in each quiche to ensure consistent flavor and texture.
  • Use Silicone Molds: Use silicone molds or liners to make removing the quiches easier and to prevent sticking.
  • Adjust Cooking Time: Air fryer cooking times can vary. Start with a shorter cooking time and check for doneness. Mini quiches typically cook in 8-12 minutes.
  • Don’t Overcrowd: Arrange the quiches in a single layer with space around each one for optimal air circulation and even cooking.
  • Check for Doneness: The quiches are done when the edges are golden and the center is set. A toothpick should come out clean from the center.
  • Cool Before Serving: Let the quiches cool for a few minutes before removing them from the molds. This helps them firm up and makes them easier to handle.

Air Fryer Muffin Tin Mini Quiche Recipe Faqs

Can I use regular pie crust instead of phyllo dough? Yes, you can use regular pie crust. Just cut it into small circles or squares to fit into your mini quiche molds.

Can I make mini quiche ahead of time? Yes, you can prepare mini quiches ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the air fryer for a few minutes before serving.

How do I prevent the phyllo dough from getting soggy? Brush the phyllo dough with a thin layer of olive oil before adding the filling. This will help keep the crust crisp.

Can I freeze mini quiches? Yes, you can freeze mini quiches. Place them in an airtight container or freezer bag and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the air fryer directly from frozen.

What types of fillings work best? You can use a variety of fillings, including cooked vegetables, meats, cheeses, and herbs. Just make sure to cook any raw ingredients before adding them to the quiche.

How do I know when the mini quiches are done? The mini quiches are done when the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.

Can I make mini quiches without a mold? Yes, you can make mini quiches on a piece of parchment paper or a silicone mat in the air fryer basket, but using a mold will help keep their shape and make removal easier.

How do I adjust the recipe for a larger batch? If you need to make a larger batch, cook the mini quiches in batches to avoid overcrowding the air fryer. Adjust the cooking time if needed, as multiple batches may cook differently.
