This is what I had in mind. I used to make similar ones at work only with a pastry shell. Tip…Fill cups about 1/3 with ingredients except for egg and cream mixture into bacon wrapped shell. Top each muffin with egg mixture.

Planning to make a quadruple recipe of your Rosemary Quiche from the Wicked Good Ketogenic diet book for my daughter’s family birthday brunch. It’s a favourite of ours. Will put it in a lasagna pan instead of a pie plate. How should be adjust the cooking instructions. Normally at 375 for 30 min.
