Preparation time: approx. 60 min.
Resting time: approx. 60 min.
Baking time: approx. 35-40 min.
Difficulty: easy
Quantity: 6 servings (if using small tartlet molds, about 12 if using muffin tins).

Ingredients for the shortcrust pastry:

  • 250g spelt flour, plus some for rolling out.
  • 125g lactose-free cold butter
  • 1 egg
  • ½ tsp salt

Ingredients for the filling:

  • 1 zucchini (approx. 200g)
  • 150g smoked salmon
  • 200g lactose-free crème frâiche
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp Frusano German Mustard
  • 1 tbsp dill, chopped
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Pepper

Other:

  • 6 small tartelette molds or muffin tin
  • Some butter for the mold
  • Some flour for the mold 

Preparation:

  1. First, mix the ingredients for the shortcrust pastry into a smooth dough, wrap in cling film and place in the fridge for about 1 hour.
  2. Then, for the filling, mix the lactose-free crème frâiche with the 2 eggs, organic mustard and dill. Season the cream with salt and pepper. 
  3. Preheat the oven to 200 °C, top/bottom heat.
  4. Next, grease the molds with butter and dust with flour. Knock off the excess flour. 
  5. Now roll out the short pastry on a floured work surface to about half a centimeter thick. Cut out circles for each of the molds you will be using and line the molds with them. Prick the dough several times with a fork.
  6. Cut the zucchini into thin slices. Now layer 1 tablespoon of cream, a layer of zucchini (1-3 slices, depending on diameter) and 1 matching piece of smoked salmon in the molds. Repeat a second time, filling the mold with cream and covering the salmon on top with it.
  7. Finally, bake the mini quiche in a preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until golden. 
  8. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving and turn the quiche out of the pan.
