Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. If making homemade crust: Combine flour, cold butter, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Use a pastry cutter or fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cold water a tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together. Roll out the dough and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish.

  3. If using store-bought crust, fit it into a 9-inch pie dish.

  4. Prepare your filling by sautéing any vegetables or proteins until cooked through. Examples include ham, spinach, mushrooms, bacon, or roasted vegetables.

  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and any herbs or spices you like until smooth.

  6. Spread the cooked filling evenly over the crust.

  7. Pour the egg and cream custard mixture over the filling in the crust.

  8. Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly on top.

  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.

  10. Remove from the oven and allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing into wedges.

  11. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold with a side salad, fresh fruit, or roasted potatoes.
