Simple and Tasty Easy Quiche Recipe Wins Tonight
Calories: 400kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made pie crust (or your favorite shortcut flaky crust)
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk or cream (half-and-half works too)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or a mix)
- 1 cup veggies, chopped (spinach, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms—your call)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional add-ins: feta, herbs, roasted garlic, a pinch of nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If the oven could talk, it would say, “Let’s do this.”
- Blind bake the crust for about 10 minutes to keep it from getting soggy. No soggy bottoms here—this isn’t a bake-off, but we’re close.
- Whisk eggs with milk or cream until everything looks evenly combined. Don’t overbeat; you’re not making meringue, just custard-light bliss.
- Stir in cheese, veggies, salt, and pepper. If you’re feeling bold, add a pinch of nutmeg or herbs for drama.
- Pour the mixture into the partially baked crust. Smooth the surface with the back of a spoon.
- Bake 35–45 minutes, until the center is just set and the edges are golden. A gentle jiggle in the middle means it’s perfect, not shy of done.
- Let it rest 10 minutes before slicing. Patience, friend—the layers settle, like a good playlist.
