# Cooking Steps:
01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter or nonstick spray.
02 - Unroll the shortcrust pastry and cut 12 rounds using a 3-inch cookie cutter. Gently press each round into the muffin tin cups. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
03 - In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Stir in grated Gruyère and crumbled goat cheese.
04 - Distribute chopped spinach, diced zucchini, and red bell pepper evenly among the pastry-lined cups.
05 - Pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling about ¾ full. Top each quiche with a cherry tomato half and sprinkle with chopped chives.
06 - Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden. Let cool slightly before removing from the tin.
07 - Arrange mini quiches in a circular wreath shape on a large platter. Garnish with edible flowers and fresh herbs to create a festive floral presentation.
