Cheddar Crab And Shrimp Mini Quiches
Bite-sized and full of flavor, these cheddar crab and shrimp mini quiches are packed with seafood, veggies, and cheesy goodness—perfect for brunch, parties, or meal prep.
- 1 cup cooked crab meat
- 1 cup cooked shrimp chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup diced onion
- ½ cup diced bell pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- 1 sheet phyllo pastry or 1 pack mini pastry shells
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk. Add the crab, shrimp, cheese, onion, bell pepper, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir everything together.
If using phyllo, layer 3–4 sheets with a bit of oil or butter between each, then cut into squares to fit your muffin tin. Press them in gently. If using mini shells, place them on a baking sheet.
Spoon the seafood mixture into each shell. Don’t overfill—leave a little space at the top.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the tops are golden and the centers are set. A toothpick should come out clean.
Let them cool a few minutes before taking them out of the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.
