Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need for the filling (serves 6–8):
-
200 g (7 oz) fresh spinach (or frozen, thawed and squeezed dry)
-
1 small onion, finely chopped
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
4 large eggs
-
1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
-
½ cup (120 ml) milk
-
1 cup (100 g) grated cheese (Gruyère, cheddar, or mozzarella – your choice!)
-
Salt & pepper, to taste
-
Olive oil or butter, for sautéing
Gruyère gives this quiche a luxurious depth, but cheddar or mozzarella work wonderfully too!
Optional Crust (Store-Bought or Homemade)
You can use:
-
A store-bought pie crust for convenience
-
A homemade buttery crust for extra richness
-
Or go crustless for a low-carb, gluten-free version!
Tip: Blind bake the crust at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Sauté the Veggies
In a skillet over medium heat:
-
Add a drizzle of olive oil or a bit of butter.
-
Sauté the chopped onion for 2–3 minutes until translucent.
-
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
-
Add the spinach and cook until wilted (if using fresh) or warmed through (if using frozen).
Drain any excess liquid to keep your quiche from getting watery.
3. Whisk the Egg Mixture
In a large bowl:
-
Whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk.
-
Stir in the grated cheese, a pinch of salt, and some cracked black pepper.
4. Combine & Fill
-
Add the spinach mixture into the egg mixture and stir to combine.
-
Pour everything into your prepared pie crust (or a greased pie dish if going crustless).
5. Bake the Quiche
-
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the quiche is puffed, lightly golden, and set in the center.
-
Let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing for the best texture.
