- To make pastry: In a large mixing bowl sift both flours. Combine milk and egg white, beat with a fork. Add melted margarine, then add milk mixture to flour and fold together. Leave to one side.
- To make filling: Coat a small non-stick frypan with cooking spray, fry bacon until browned. Leave to one side. In a medium sized mixing bowl beat eggs and whites for 1 minute using an electric beater. Add milk and beat until blended. Add parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic, grated cheese and cooked bacon.
- To prepare quiches: On a well floured surface roll out pastry until fairly thin. Using an 8cm scone cutter cut 24 circles. Coat a 12 holed muffin tin with cooking spray and place 12 pastry bases into holes. Pour egg mixture to reach nearly the top of pastry.
- Bake 20-25 minutes or until egg mixture is firm in centre. Repeat with other 12 pastry bases and filling. Serve hot or cold.
