Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1 cup chopped vegetables (bell peppers, spinach, onions)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that the quiche will bake evenly and thoroughly.
- Prepare your pie crust by placing it in a 9-inch pie dish. If using a store-bought crust, follow the package instructions for pre-baking if necessary. If making from scratch, roll out the dough and fit it into the dish, crimping the edges as desired.
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the 4 large eggs. Beat them well until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Add 1 cup of milk to the eggs and whisk together until smooth. This mixture will create a creamy filling for your quiche.
- Stir in 1 cup of shredded cheese of your choice (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend work well) into the egg and milk mixture.
- Prepare your vegetables by chopping them finely. You can use a mix of bell peppers, spinach, and onions, totaling 1 cup. Add the chopped vegetables to the egg mixture.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Be sure to mix thoroughly to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Pour the egg, cheese, and vegetable mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.
- Once cooked, remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This resting time helps the filling to firm up slightly, making it easier to cut.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your delicious Six Sisters BB Vegetable Quiche!
Tips
- Customize Your Vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetable combinations. Try adding mushrooms, zucchini, or even sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor complexity.
- Cheese Matters: Use high-quality, freshly shredded cheese for the best melting and flavor. A sharp cheddar or a blend of cheeses can elevate the entire dish.
- Prevent a Soggy Crust: For an extra crispy bottom, pre-bake your pie crust for 10 minutes before adding the filling, or sprinkle a thin layer of breadcrumbs before pouring in the egg mixture.
- Make It Ahead: This quiche is perfect for meal prep! It can be refrigerated for 3-4 days and reheated in the oven for a quick and delicious meal.
- Perfect Doneness Test: The quiche is done when the center is just set but still slightly jiggly. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
- Let It Rest: Always allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes after baking. This helps it set and makes cutting much easier.
