Egg And Cream Cheese Quiche From Scratch Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Saute onion in butter until transparent.
• Cover the bottom of the pie crust with the cream cheese, cut into small pieces.
• Add the meat and onion and top with the grated Swiss cheese.
• Mix together the milk and eggs and nutmeg if using and pour over the top.
• Bake for 15 minutes, reduce the temperature to 350 degrees, and bake for another 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix the flour and butter together thoroughly until it turns into a dough, then rub the dough with your hands until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add the egg yolk and 2 tablespoons of cold water and the process it with an electric hand mixer until the dough comes back together again, in a smooth ball. wrap the dough in clingfilm and chill it in a fridge for 30 minutes.
• Heat the oven to 170°C.
• Roll out the pastry dough on a lightly floured work surface, then use it to line a pastry pan that fits your dough in. Roll the rolling pin over the edges of pan to cut any excess pastry from the edges. Chill for 30 minutes in the fridge.
• Spread the soft cheese evenly at the bottom of the pastry. Beat the egg, milk and salt until smooth and fully blended. Pour it over the cheese in the pastry case.
• Bake it in the centre of the oven until the centre of the quiche is almost set but jiggles slightly when the dish is gently shaken and when a knife is inserted near the centre of the quiche, it comes out clean. Let the quiche stand for 5 minutes to cool down, then cut into slices. Sit Back, Relax, and Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°; prick the crust all over with a fork.
• Line it with tin foil and weight the bottom with a pile of dried beans, rice, or other weights that will sit flat on the surface.
• Bake 12 minutes; remove from the oven and carefully remove the weight and foil; turn the oven to 325°.
• In a bowl, combine the eggs, cheese, cream, and seasonings; beat until well blended.
• Place the baked crust on a baking sheet; pour the egg mixture into the crust, right to the top.
• Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the oven; bake 30-40 minutes, until the mixture is set but still moist; it should still jiggle just a little in the middle (cover pie crust edges with foil if getting too brown).
• Cool on a rack; serve warm or at room temperature.
