An Anytime Snack

EASY MINI QUICHES

8 strips bacon

1 onion, chopped

1 cup milk

3/4 cup buttermilk baking mix

3 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup butter, melted

2 cups Cheddar cheese, grated

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large skillet, fry the bacon and add the onion. Cook until bacon is crisp and onion is soft. Drain fat. Crumble bacon and set aside.

In a blender, combine milk, baking mix, eggs and butter. Mix the onion, bacon, cheese and egg mixture toether and spoon into greased mini muffin cups. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until tops are lightly browned. Allow quiches to cool in the pan before carefully removing.

Makes 24 mini quiches.

I used Super Mini muffin pans and baked almost 48. Also, in my oven, the baking time was about 20-25 minutes. Soooo good!
