Ingredients
6 slices prosciutto, halved
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
3 ounces (2 cups compacted) baby spinach, roughly chopped
3 eggs, at room temperature
1/4 cup mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
Pinch freshly ground pepper
Small pinch ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Making the prosciutto cups: Line 12 mini-muffin cups with the halved prosciutto slices.
- Making the spinach: Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan and cook the garlic over medium-high heat until golden, about 30 seconds. Add the spinach and saute, stirring continuously until the spinach just begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
- Making the eggs: Add the eggs, mascarpone, lemon zest, pepper and nutmeg to a large measuring cup with a spout. With a hand-held blender, puree for 30 seconds.
- Making the quiche: Divide the sauteed spinach among the prosciutto cups. Pour the egg mixture carefully over the spinach. Sprinkle each cup with the chives.
- Bake the cups until the eggs are cooked and the prosciutto is crispy, about 10 minutes. Serve warm.
