Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Lightly grease a 12-hole mini muffin tin.
  2. Cook the bacon rashers in a frying pan over medium heat until brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes each side. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Chop finely and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, add the spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Drain well and squeeze out any excess moisture. Roughly chop.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, a2 Milk® Full Cream, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Add the cooked spinach, chopped onion, and 1/4 cup of the goat's cheese. Stir to combine.
  6. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin holes, filling each about three-quarters full.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes until almost set. The middles should still be slightly jiggly.
  8. Remove from oven. Sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1/4 cup goat's cheese and the chopped bacon.
  9. Return to oven and bake for a further 4-6 minutes until completely cooked and golden on top.
  10. Allow to cool in the tin for 2 minutes before removing. Serve warm.
