Instructions
How to Make the Best Quiche
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even baking and a golden crust.
- If using store-bought crust, fit it into your pie dish as per package instructions. For homemade crust, roll out and place in the dish, trimming excess. Optionally, blind bake for 10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 2 cups heavy cream, 1 cup whole milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground pepper until smooth and frothy.
- Add your favorite fillings like sautéed spinach, diced tomatoes, cooked bacon, or cheeses. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the fillings.
- Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
- Remove from oven and cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
