STEP BY STEP

Let’s make it.

Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line 12 muffin cups with baking-paper liners.
Steam the broccoli with the measured water in a covered pan for 3–4 minutes. Drain thoroughly and let cool briefly.
Whisk the eggs, cream, mustard, salt and pepper. Fold in the cheddar and broccoli.
Divide among the cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Bake for 20–25 minutes until the centers are set and reach 160°F (71°C).
Cool for 5 minutes before removing from the tin. Divide into 6 servings; the original serving is two mini quiches.

Kitchen notes

Silicone muffin cups also work. Choose vegetarian-rennet cheddar if needed.
