- Grease the baking tray (quiche tray or muffin tray ).
- Bake at 200°C (400°F) for about 20 minutes.
- Keep an eye on the oven, the muffins are going to need less time in the oven than the quiche.

Notes
- I used both a quiche tray and a muffin tray because both of them were small.
- You may consider using a tray of your choice.
- If baking in a muffin tray, please consider the fact that they may be ready in less than 20 minutes.
- I first tried this recipe without using any plant based cream / milk / silken tofu.It turned out a little bit too dry so I figured I should use something to soften it, to make a bit more moist.You can make it using just the stock and the chickpea flour to make the batter, it works out pretty well, too.
- Any veggies combination can be used, feel free to play around.
