Have a spare 15 minutes? Whip up some spinach and feta wonton quiche cup for breakfast! These wonton egg cups are quick, easy, and utterly delicious! Breakfast is served!
Whether dining out or whipping up meals at home, people generally fall into two categories: people that try something new and exciting as much as possible, and people that like to stick to the usual suspects at mealtime.
I like to frolic in the happy medium between the two and try anything new I can get my hands on, while still honoring my tried and true favorites.
Usually that results in me making the same recipes over and over, with little tweaks according to seasonal produce, fridge and pantry contents, and cravings.
I could probably share 50 quiche recipes with you for this reason. Today I’ll save you the egg-bardment and highlight the ones I made myself for breakfast this morning.
Spinach and Feta Wonton Quiche Cups
I love breakfast… quiches… and anything that doesn’t t require pots, pans, or a sink full of dishes. So by default, you already know how much I love these =)
I’ve been making these mini quiches like crazy for the past year and recently decided to cut a few corners and make them even speedier!
Make a plate for yourself or an entire tray for a crowd!
Spinach and Feta Wonton Quiche Cups
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 8 wonton wrappers
- a handful of spinach torn
- ½ TBSP plain greek yogurt
- 1 TBSP crumbled feta cheese
- a sprinkle of dried minced onion, garlic powder, salt and pepper
- top with light sprinkle of parsley and red pepper flakes
- green salsa for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 365 degrees F.
- Gently place wonton squares in a mini-muffin tray spritzed with olive oil.
- Crack eggs into a coffee mug along with 1/2 tablespoon of greek yogurt and beat with a fork. Tear spinach into small pieces and toss into the mug with the eggs along with your spices and crumbled feta.
- Stir to incorporate and spoon into your won-ton cups.
- Bake for approx 8-10 minutes or until quiche mixtures fluffs up into a “muffin-top” and the edges of your won-ton cups are toasty + golden brown.
- When time permits, I highly suggest sauteing the spinach w/ a little oil, garlic, and a pinch of salt. It amps up the flavor of the gorgeous greens and tastes absolutely heavenly!
Notes

Coconut milk pairs nicely with eggs if you’re dairy-free!
Ham, bacon, or crumbled turkey sausage rock in these. Need I say more?

If you get a chance to try these Spinach and Feta Wonton Quiche Cups, let me know! You can leave me a comment here (LOVE checking those daily!) or tag @PEASandCRAYONS on Instagram so I can happy dance over your creations. I can’t wait to see what you whip up!
Ooh and did I mention you can use a full-size muffin tin if you don’t have a mini tin handy? You totally can! You’ll need more “filling” aka egg mixture and will want to use two won-ton squares per muffin cup. Easy peasy!

Questions & Reviews
I made these replacing the wonton wrappers with high protein/fiber tortillas (cut in 4s, 2 overlapping per reg sized muffin cup), and spinach dip. They were fantastic! Will absolutely be making them again to use up all the leftover spinach dip I got from costco!
I made these with ham, cottage cheese, tomato paste, herbs and topped with parmesan. A massive hit!! Thanks.
Such a fun wonton cup filling!
These were the perfect quick and easy appetizer for the baby shower I hosted this past weekend. Everyone loved them!
So so happy to hear it! Thanks!
I had some leftover wonton wrappers which I had to use up, so thought I would make this. Looks simple enough. I couldn’t stop myself, these wonton quiche cups are so good!
Yay!!! Glad you enjoyed them Helene!
I am all about the bite size food! These are now my go-to dish for any baby or wedding shower…or really any party when I want to surprise people with a fun and unexpected finger food.
Dude I’m so honored they’re your go-to now!
Can these be frozen? For how long? Or if not freezing them, how far ahead for a Reception?
Hey Judy! I’ve frozen the filling with great success, thawed it, then added the thawed filling to fresh won-ton wrappers in a mini muffin tin and baked just before serving [for around 8-10 min] and they’ve turned out great! I’ve also frozen under-baked stuffed wonton cups before and they’ve turned out delicious too! The texture and crisp of the cups is a little different after reheating versus the first method though [with just freezing the filling] so I think the first would be my favorite technique for saving time. Hope that helps! Feel free to let me know if any other questions pop up! xo
Could the filling be made the day before and refrigerated instead of freezing? Thinking of using this for an appetizer for Easter Lunch, but want to prep as much as I can the day before!
I absolutely should have mentioned that, YES! Thanks Amanda! I’ll update it in the post and you can absolutely prep ahead of time with the filling. The assembly and baking part is super quick and easy and would be a perfect Easter lunch appetizer! <3 I hope y'all adore it as much as I do!
I seriously obsessed with these…making them consecutively for like wks isn’t too obsessed right? 😉
Haha I’m so glad you’re loving them Tina!
Just wondering…would you suggest serving these warm (like just out of the oven) or could I make them earlier in the day to bring to an evening party?
What a really cool idea! Lovely photos too!
Thank you for sharing.
Wow! Your photos are gorgeous!! I wish you would share some food photography tips though :-).
This genuinely looks quick!!! AND it has some of my favorite ingredients so you can bet that I will be making these very soon. LOVE your site and am looking forward to exploring it more. I found you on Foodbuzz btw. Cheers!
Just checked it! It calls for “GF” all purpose flour which is gluten-free — King Arthur Flour makes one that is multi-purpose and gluten-free!
Your gluten-free recipe for wonton wrappers has all-purpose flour in it. How is that gluten free?
Oh my god, so cute! 🙂 And I love how easy these are, perfect recipe!
Yum! Can’t wait to try these this week! Would have never thought to make quiche this way!
OH WOW I LOVE THE COMBO! Really good appetizer!
I don’t I could make the entire tray for a crowd, I think they would all be for me!
These look to-die-for good. I am going to try to make a vegan version. Thanks for the inspiration.
Love this! Great idea for a brunch spread.
Beautiful idea for a party! I never heard of Nasoya won-ton wrappers (next trip to the asian shop I’ll try to spot them out! :)) but I think i can use phillo pastry rectangules… I’ll keep this recipe in mind!
So cute…the slow cooker soup was a winner tonight. Thanks again for the recipe. The savory garlic and butter buns (a la cinnamon buns) recipe not so much. Oh well, can’t please em all.
These look delicious! What a fun way to start your morning! I think I’m the one who likes to try something new every day. Honey Bunny would like some repeats…but I keep telling him I’ve moved onto a new recipe!
they look really cute and quite delicious, perfect as an appetizer
You are just too much! I juts happen to have some wonton wrappers sitting in my fridge that I don’t know what to do with. I knew I could come here for ideas. 🙂 These look amazing!
This is such an egg-tastic recipe!
Those are really cute. I wonder if phylo dough or pieces of tortilla would work since I have those on hand.
I LOVE recipes that don’t require dirtying a lot of dishes too! And these look so yummy! Putting on my “make” list right now 🙂
mmm I’m gonna have to try these out! I LOVE your recipes. I seriously love cooking – by the time I get home in the evening I make and devour whatever I choose so quickly that I am left saying… WHY can’t I take cute pictures while I’m preparing it and BEFORE I eat it?! lol… Guess there is just not enough time in my days :/
Im going to blow your mind here- use reg muffin pan, put in some cooked quinoa and pat down, bake for 10min, fill with you eggy (or swap in soft tofu!!) stuff and bake again. Crazy good and a bit more filling. Also fab with polenta.
OOooh yum. Pinning this 🙂
Cute & awesome,perfect finger food!
so easy and quick…and delish.
Wow, that looks DELICIOUS!!! Just wanted to stop by to tell you I did the Celery Hearts with my little ones and blogged about it! Thanks for the memories!

I just hopped on the mini-quiche bandwagon recently because they are so delicious and healthy and portable. These wonton crusts? This is genius! A crunchy crust without all the fat. Yum!!
Holy cow these look so yummy! Your pictures are awesome too!

Thanks for passing on the link for GF wonton wrappers! Maybe “non-glutenvores” for the dinosaur name?? 🙂
This is the most amazing idea and I must make this, maybe even today. I play with wontons, quite often but never even thought of such a creative dish.
Yummy! I gotta be some wonton wrappers and try these soon!
Ooh this looks fab! I have phyllo pastry – I could use that instead of wonton wraps I think? Looks yum!
I used wonton wraps a couple weeks ago and now I am addicted to them! They are so versatile and so easy. My 5 year old would love these. Breakfast for dinner is her favorite.
These are so cute!! I love how versatile wonton wrappers can be 🙂
Hi Jenn! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I LOVE yours!! Your pictures are GORGEOUS! I am totally going to give the gluten-free version of this quiche a try–it looks YUMMY!
I am a total tweener–sometimes I get all creative and adventurous with trying out recipes and other times I stick to the standard usual suspects. Desserts are the most fun times to get all daring because it is hard to mess up sugar. 🙂
These sound so good, Jenn and If I didn’t tell him, I don’t think Ralph would know there was yogurt in it. Yum…Thanks!
Super yum! While I am working I tend to stick to the same recipes, but on the weekends and long breaks I will turn my tiny kitchen into a test kitchen for a variety of recipes! 🙂
i love how easy this recipe is and the option to add different ingredients is always a plus! and…they look DELICIOUS! can’t wait to try these out 🙂
I’m a weird hybrid of those two personalities. I take a dish I like and make as many different varities as I possibly can.
Oh wow! I definitely have to try these out! YUMMY!
♥ Kyna
What a great use of Won Ton wrappers! yum!
yum!! They look fantastic 🙂
These look freaking delicious. Definately need to try these!
I love trying new recipes but I am the same as you…I still have my tried and true favs that I just play around with once in awhile. I love quiche or really any egg dishes! Thanks for sharing!
So cute and looks soo easy. This would be perfect for an Oscar party. 🙂

So yummy looking! You should cook me dinner sometime.
Oh I love the use of won-ton wrappers. Looks like they make it just as easy as say a pre-made phyllo cup.
Quiche though is fantastic and the less dishes it creates the better!!!!
Happy Thursday Jenn 🙂
What a great idea! I think I’m going to have to try these this weekend.
Super speedy and super cute! I am in the middle too: this week we are all about basics after all that V-Day extravaganza. Potatoes, cornmeal, cabbage, roots.

I love all of your wonton cups! These would be awesome for a brunch party/shower. So pretty too!
