¼cupFresh Cream(whipping cream/double cream)

Instructions
Pre-heat the oven to 200 deg C (400 deg F) – spray one or two mini muffin pans (I use the size between a mini and standard muffin pan) with cooking oil
Roll out the Pastry slightly thinner – cut out rounds twice the size of your muffin hole tops – press into the muffin pan holes (keep chilled in refrigerator until needed)
Cook the Bacon until crispy – remove from pan and keep aside – drain pan but leave 1 Tablespoonful of the Bacon drippings in the pan
Add the Onion and Garlic to the pan and saute 5 minutes or until soft – remove from heat and stir in the Spinach
Whisk together the Egg, Milk and Cream in a medium mixing bowl – add the Spinach mixture and crumble the cooked Bacon into the mixture as well
Season to taste with Salt, Pepper and Tabasco Sauce – add the Cheese last – stir well to combine
Fill each pastry crust with the mixture and bake 15 – 18 minutes or until a tester comes out clean
