Ingredients:
- 1 pastry crust (for lining tart tins)

- 1 package (10 ounces) frozen spinach, drained
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup half-and-half cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
-
Prepare Tart Shells: Line 3 tart tins with pastry crust, ensuring even coverage along the bottom and sides.
-
Brush with Butter: Brush each pastry crust with melted butter, using approximately 2 tablespoons in total. Once brushed, refrigerate the tart shells for 30 minutes to firm up the pastry before filling.
-
Add Spinach: Distribute drained spinach evenly among the tart shells, placing approximately 1 teaspoon of spinach in each.
-
Top with Cheese: Sprinkle shredded Swiss cheese over the spinach layer, ensuring each tart is generously topped.
-
Prepare Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together 3 eggs and 1 cup of half-and-half cream until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring a flavorful filling.
-
Fill Tart Shells: Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the egg and cream mixture into each tart shell, covering the spinach and cheese layers evenly.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the filled tart tins in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tarts are golden brown and the filling is set.
-
Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the Spinach Quiche Tarts from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. These tarts are delicious both warm and at room temperature, making them ideal for any occasion.
