Apple And Walnut Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Place apples in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup brown sugar and cinnamon. In a bowl, cream butter and remaining brown sugar. Beat in eggs. Stir in flour and 1/2 cup walnuts. Spread over apples. Sprinkle with remaining walnuts., Bake at 350° for 45-55 minutes or until the apples are tender. Serve warm, with ice cream if desired.

Steps:

• Fit pastry into 9 inch quiche dish. (I used a pie pan). Prick bottom and sides of pastry with fork. Bake at 450 for 8-10 minutes; cool on wire rack.
• Combine apple, and next 3 ingredients; toss well. Cook apple mixture and onion in butter in large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until onion is tender. Remove from heat, and cool 20 minutes.
• Brown sausage in large skillet, stirring until it crumbles and is done; drain well. Combine eggs and next 3 ingredients in large bowl. Add apple mixture and sausage to egg mixture; stir well.
• Pour mixture into prepared pastry shell. Gently stir in cheese. Bake uncovered at 350 for 35 minutse or until cheese melts and knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pulse together the walnuts, flour, sugar and salt to a fine meal in a food processor. Pulse in the butter until it forms to a crumbly dough. Press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Place on a baking sheet and bake until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• For the filling: Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the wild mushrooms and white mushrooms and season with 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat to medium; add the butter, shallots and thyme. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes more. Adjust the seasoning and set aside.
• Combine the Parmesan and Comte cheeses in a small bowl and set aside. Scatter half of the mushrooms and half the cheese evenly over the crust. Whisk the eggs, milk, heavy cream and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl until smooth and frothy. Pour half the egg mixture over the mushrooms. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms and egg mixture and top with the remaining cheese.
• Bake the quiche until golden brown on top and just set with a little wiggle in the very center, 50 to 60 minutes. Run a clean paring knife between the crust and the pan to separate. Let cool slightly for 25 minutes.
• Garnish the quiche with parsley. Carefully remove the springform pan ring. Cut the quiche into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature with crisp greens.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 and set the rack in the middle. Combine the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse once or twice. Add the butter and process until the mixture looks like cornmeal. Put the mixture in a bowl and add the ice water; mix with your hands until you can form the dough into a ball, adding another tablespoon of ice water if necessary. Wrap the ball in plastic and freeze for 10 minutes (or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to a couple days).
• Sprinkle a countertop with flour and put the dough on it, sprinkling more flour on top. Use a rolling pin to roll with light pressure from the center out. If the dough is hard, let it rest for a few minutes; if it's sticky, add a little flour. Roll, adding flour and rotating and turning the dough as needed; use ragged edges of dough to repair any tears, adding a drop of water when you press a patch in place.
• When the diameter of the dough is about 2 inches greater than that of a 9-inch tart pan, drape the dough over the rolling pin and transfer it into the pie plate. Press the dough firmly into the plate, all over. Once the dough is in place, trim as necessary; freeze for 10 minutes or refrigerate for 30 or so.
• Prick the pie crust with a fork all over, then bake it for 10 to 12 minutes, or until beginning to brown; remove and turn the oven down to 375. Meanwhile, fry the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium heat, then remove from pan with a slotted spoon; cool and chop.
• Pour out all but one tablespoon of bacon fat and use the same pan to fry the apples. Add salt, pepper and rosemary. Turn the heat up to medium-high and cook, stirring frequently, until the apple is soft and lightly browned, at least 15 minutes. Adjust the heat so it doesn't brown too much or crisp up. Turn off the heat and spread apples onto the crust; then sprinkle with bacon and cheese.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and cream. Put the semicooked shell on a baking sheet and pour in the egg mixture. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until almost firm (it should still jiggle just a little in the middle) and lightly browned on top; reduce the oven heat if the shell's edges are darkening too quickly. Cook on a rack; serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Press pie crust into the bottom and up the sides of an 11-inch tart pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Crumble.
• Heat bacon grease in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add apple and cook until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in bacon.
• Whisk milk, sour cream, eggs, sea salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl.
• Layer apple mixture, Cheddar cheese, and egg mixture in the prepared crust. Sprinkle sage over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set, 30 to 40 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the apples in the pie shell.
• Sprinkle apples with cheese.
• In a small bowl, mix together the rest of the ingredient.
• Pour mixture over the apples.
• Bake for 60 to 65 minutes.
• Let stand for 10 minutes before serving warm, or serve chilled.
• Top with sweetened whipped cream flavored with vanilla and cinnamon.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 210°C.
• Line tart pan or pie pan with pastry or shell.
• Prick the bottom with a fork several times.
• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl.
• Add the sour cream, and pepper and combine well.
• Crumble in the roquefort and continue to whisk until the cheese has broken up.
• You will, however, still have some distinct lumps of it.
• Place the spinach in the bottom of the tart pan.
• Sprinkle the walnuts evenly over the spinach.
• Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the top, making sure to spread the remaining lumps of roquefort as evenly as possible.
• Bake 25-30 minutes, or until quiche has set and top is nicely browned.

Steps:

• To make the dough, put the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the egg and pulse until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. (Add water a teaspoon at a time if the dough seems too dry.) Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter and ease it into a 10-inch tart pan. Trim the edges. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Spread the chilled crust with the frangipani. Peel, halve, core and thinly slice the apples. Fan the apples over the frangipani. Combine the sugar and the cinnamon in a small cup, mix well and sprinkle over the apples. Bake until the crust is browned and the apples are soft, about 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool.
• Remove the tart from the pan. Warm the apple jelly in a small saucepan over low heat until it is just melted. Brush the hot jelly over the surface of the tart. Brush the crust with jelly and dust the crust with ground walnuts. Dust the crust again with powdered sugar. Slice and serve.
