Quiche Recipe
The best recipe to make an easy and delicious Quiche using homemade pie crust. You can make quiche for dinner.
Equipment
- 2 9-inch Pie Plate
Ingredients
- 1 Pie Crust unbaked
- 6 Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy Cream
- 4 oz Cheddar Cheese shredded
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place a pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish.
- Whisk 6 eggs and heavy cream together until fully blended. If you want a lower fat option, opt for Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream.
- Season the eggs with salt and pepper.
- Shred 4-ounces of cheddar cheese and then add the cheese to the pie crust.
- Pour the egg mixture over the top of the cheese in the pie crust, then gently stir in the cheese.
- Place the quiche in a preheated 400-degree oven and if you have a pie crust cover, place it and then cook for 10 minutes.
- Take off the pie crust cover and finish cooking for 25-30 more minutes until a knife comes out clean.
- Remove the quiche from the oven and then let rest for 3-5 minutes before serving, then serve with your favorite toppings!
Notes
Freshly shredded cheese is best because it will mix well with the eggs and does not have any anti-caking powder like a pre-shredded cheese will have.
For example, we eat quiche with salsa, Greek yogurt, hot sauce, avocados, tomatoes and extra shredded cheese. We then plate up these toppings and have them on the table, so we have a variety of choices.
