Ingredients

3 sheets refrigerated pie crust
1 cup shredded or crumbled cheese (like Swiss, cheddar, pepper jack or feta)
1 cup cooked mix-ins (like cooked sausage or sauteed vegetables)
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Using a 2-1/2-inch round cutter, cut out 36 circles. Press circles onto bottoms and up sides of 36 greased nonstick miniature muffin cups. Chill at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 325°. Sprinkle cheese over crusts. Top with cooked mix-ins. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, cream, salt and pepper; pour over filling to three-fourths full.
Bake on a lower oven rack until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean and crusts are golden brown, 30-35 minutes. Cool 10, minutes before removing from pan. Serve warm.
