Prepare the Tart Shells: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place tart shells in two 12-cup muffin tins. Dock the bottoms of the shells with a fork to prevent puffing. Blind bake with pie weights or dried beans for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.

Cook the Bacon: While the shells bake, cook bacon lardons in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, approximately 7-10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

Assemble the Filling: In a bowl, combine 1 cup of the shredded Gruyère, sliced green onions, and crispy bacon lardons. Distribute this mixture evenly among the partially baked tart shells.

Fill and Bake: Gently ladle the egg custard into each tart shell, filling them about two-thirds full. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of Gruyère cheese over the tarts. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is a deep golden brown.

Cool and Serve: Let the mini quiches cool slightly in the muffin tins before transferring them to a wire rack. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk.
Add a pinch of nutmeg to the custard for a warm, aromatic note.
Experiment with different cheeses like Emmental or Comté for a unique twist.
Mini quiches can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
For a vegetarian option, substitute the bacon with sautéed mushrooms or caramelized onions.
