Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius. Grease a 12 hole muffin tin generously with butter, making sure each cup is well coated.
Tip: Using silicone muffin cups makes removal much easier if you prefer.

Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk together with the milk, salt and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Tip: Whisk for about a minute to incorporate air, which helps the quiches rise beautifully.

Add the grated cheddar, diced chillies, spring onions and fresh coriander to the egg mixture and stir gently until evenly distributed.
Tip: Reserve a small handful of cheese to sprinkle on top for extra golden colour.

Carefully pour the mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about three quarters full. Distribute the halved cherry tomatoes among the cups, pressing them slightly into the mixture.
Tip: Don't overfill or the mixture will spill over during cooking.

Sprinkle the reserved cheese over the top of each quiche and place the tin in the preheated oven.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the quiches are golden brown on top and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
Tip: The cooking time depends on your oven, so start checking at 25 minutes.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before gently loosening the edges with a knife and turning out onto a wire rack.
