Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1 pie crust homemade or store bought
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk or half and half
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella
  • 1 to 1.5 cups fillings of your choice already cooked
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges.
  3. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill it with dried beans or pie weights.
  4. Blind bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove the weights and let it cool slightly.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the 4 eggs and 1 cup of milk or half and half until smooth.
  6. Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded cheese and your choice of cooked fillings evenly into the crust.
  8. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings, leaving a little room at the top to prevent overflow.
  9. Bake the quiche in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is just set but slightly jiggly.
  10. Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Feel free to use any combination of cooked vegetables, meats, or cheeses. Quiche can be made crustless by spraying a pie dish and skipping the crust. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
