Beginner Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Line pastry with a double layer of aluminum foil. Bake in preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 4 to 5 minutes more, or until crust is set. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Remove bacon from pan, crumble and set aside. Reserve 2 tablespoons bacon grease in skillet. Cook onion in reserved drippings until tender; drain and set aside.
• In a large bowl, mix together eggs, milk and salt. Stir in bacon and onion. In a separate bowl, toss cheese and flour together. Add cheese to egg mixture; stir well. Pour mixture into hot pastry shell.
• Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until knife inserted into center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edges of crust with foil to prevent burning. Let quiche cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• in a bowl mix the eggs, milk, parmesan cheese and the seasonings. Beat with a wire whisk until well combined.
• add in the cheddar, ham, cooked shallots, and the tomato. Mix with a spoon.
• pour into the pie crust and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, (I place it on a cookie sheet).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Preheat a cookie sheet or upside down cast iron pan.
• Parbake pie crust by lining uncooked pie crust with parchment paper and filling with pie weights or uncooked dry beans.
• Bake atop cookie sheet or cast iron pan for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
• While crust is baking, mix together eggs and milk until thoroughly combined.
• Add onion powder, pepper and nutmeg.
• Sweat onions in oil/butter until soft.
• Sprinkle with salt while cooking to prevent browning.
• If they get a little brown, that is okay.
• Remove onions from heat and set aside.
• Shred cheese, if necessary.
• You should have 8 ounces total of shredded cheese. The weight is AFTER shredding.
• Mix shredded cheese with flour.
• Remove crust from oven.
• Fill with onions, bacon, cheese in that order.
• Pour egg/milk mixture over fillings until crust is full (just below the crust edge). DO NOT OVERFILL!
• (If you have extra custard mix, you can cook it in small Pyrex ramekins with a bit of cheese for a crustless mini-quiche.)
• Cover edges of pie crust with foil to prevent over-browning. Remove this foil for the last 10 minutes of baking.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes on the preheated cookie sheet or cast iron pan.
• Allow to cool slightly before serving.
• This can also be served cold for brunches or breakfast.
• To reheat in the microwave, place 1 slice on a plate; cover with paper towel; warm on 70% power for 1-2 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10 inch quiche dish.
• In a large bowl, beat together milk, eggs, baking mix, butter and parmesan cheese. Batter will be lumpy. Stir in broccoli, ham and Cheddar cheese. Pour into prepared quiche dish.
• Bake in preheated oven for 50 minutes, until eggs are set and top is golden brown.
