Categories     Breakfast

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 large eggs
2/3 cup whole milk
¼ cup half-and-half
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
Pinch ground nutmeg (optional)
1 1/2 cups mix-ins of choice: See below for suggestions and ingredient notes for a broccoli bacon version
2/3 cup grated Gruyère cheese (or swap fontina, sharp cheddar, or smoked mozzarella)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Cooked (crumbled bacon)
Chopped and sautéed broccoli
Caramelized onions
Cubed leftover ham
Roasted vegetables (roughly chopped)

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a deep 9-inch pie dish with nonstick spray.
  • Prepare any mix-ins (see recipe notes for a broccoli bacon version and the blog post above for more suggestions).
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half-and-half, salt, pepper, mustard, and nutmeg.
  • Scatter the mix-ins evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
  • Sprinkle the cheese on top.
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture into the dish. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the chives over the top.
  • Bake the quiche on the baking sheet until the center is set, about 35 minutes. It should look puffed and golden at the edges, and when a thin, sharp knife is inserted in the center, the center should be cooked through without visible liquid. Let cool a few minutes. Cut into big wedges. Enjoy warm.

Time 2h20m

Yield 1 (9-inch) quiche, 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 cups (1-inch, day-old) bread cubes, preferably sourdough
2 tablespoons unsalted butter or extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups half-and-half
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch cayenne or paprika
2 to 3 cups prepared vegetables, such as braised leeks, broccoli, sauteed onions, mushrooms, spinach, peppers, tomatoes
4 ounces, or about 1 cup grated or crumbled cheese, such as Cheddar, goat cheese, Gruyere, Parmesan, fontina, provolone, mozzarella, Gouda, solo or combined
1 to 4 tablespoons minced herbs, such as parsley, chives, tarragon, basil, dill, rosemary, marjoram
3/4 cup chopped crisp bacon, diced ham or salami
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, optional, this is good to use with vegetables that release liquid during cooking, such as zucchini and spinach

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. For the pan: Brush pan with the soft butter and sprinkle the grated Parmesan evenly on top. Or for a Quick Crust, pulse bread into crumbs in a food processor. Heat butter or oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add bread crumbs and stir until evenly toasted, about 5 minutes. Evenly spread crumbs in a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie pan. Place pan on a baking sheet.
  • Whisk the half-and-half, eggs and yolks in large glass measuring cup. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, cayenne or paprika to taste. Spread half the desired filling evenly in the pan, top with about half the cheese; repeat with remaining filling and cheese. Pour the custard over the fillings. Top with more herbs or cheese as desired.
  • Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, about 40 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack before serving.

VERY BEST CRUSTLESS QUICHE



Very Best Crustless Quiche image

This is from Chelsea's Village Tea Room in Biltmore, NC. I am not a huge quiche lover, but this recipe is amazing. You can use nearly anything for the filling and it comes out wonderful. I usually use a combination of veggies, but you can also use ham, bacon or even shrimp. The restaurant serves it with apple chutney on top, which is delicious, but it's good without as well!
