Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 package mini pie crusts (about 12)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
