These individual tarts are surprisingly easy to make using store-bought dough in a metal muffin tin. They're perfect for serving at receptions, parties, or just for breakfast. Kids will especially love this small tart, which fits comfortably in the hand. The dough circles are cut into muffin tin cavities, forming deep crusts that are then filled with a creamy quiche filling made with green peas, grated Gruyere, and bits of fried bacon. Bake until the filling is set, and serve.

Recipes with similar ingredients: shortcrust pastry, Gruyere cheese, peas, eggs, cream, bacon, ground cayenne pepper, paprika
Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 190°C.
- Place the bacon in a medium skillet and cook over medium-high heat until browned and crispy on both sides, about 7 minutes. Transfer the fried bacon to paper towels, and once the excess fat has drained, dice it.
- In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, heavy cream, paprika, cayenne pepper, Dijon mustard, and some salt and black pepper; whisk until smooth. Add the bacon, green peas, and Gruyere; stir to combine.
- Unroll the pie dough and use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut out 7 circles. If necessary, reroll the dough scraps and cut out more circles. Spray a 12-cup metal muffin pan with cooking spray. Press each circle of dough into the pan's cavities, crimping the edges.
- Spread the egg mixture evenly among the cavities. Bake until the filling is completely set, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly and serve.
