Ingredients: 

  • 1–1/4 cup FlapJacked Buttermilk Protein Pancake & Baking Mix*

  • 1/2 cup water

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1/2 cup white mushrooms (chopped)

  • 1/4 cup diced red onion

  • 2 cups (fresh) baby spinach leaves

  • 4 eggs +4 egg whites

  • 1/4 cup almond milk

  • 6 pieces turkey bacon, cooked & chopped

  • 1/3 cup shredded Swiss cheese

  • salt & pepper to taste

  • Instructions: 

  • Put FlapJacked mix and seasoning in a bowl and whisk together. Add in water and stir until you have a thick, sticky dough. Place in the refrigerator.

  • Place a large skillet over medium heat.

  • Add the oil, mushrooms, onion, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cook until onion are soft and the mushrooms are dry and lightly browned (10 minutes.)

  • Add in spinach, stir and remove from heat (until slightly wilted). Set aside to cool slightly.

  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and cut into 12 equal pieces.

  • Lightly coat a 12-cup nonstick muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.

  • Heat oven to 375˚F. Press and flatten each piece of dough against the rim of the cups of the muffin tin (the dough should fill out about half of the cup) and set aside.

  • Whisk the eggs, egg whites, milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined. Stir in the cheese and chopped bacon, followed by the mushroom, onion and spinach mixture.

  • Pour the egg mixture evenly between the muffin tins, filling each about halfway.

  • Place in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes (until quiches are golden brown on top and set in the middle).

  • Remove from the oven and let the pan cool for 10 minutes. Serve and ENJOY!
