Description

A delightful and easy-to-make quiche featuring five heartwarming ingredients, perfect for festive gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients and preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Chop the spinach and shred the cheese if you haven’t done so already.
  2. Place the pie crust in a pie dish and pre-bake it for 10 minutes to achieve a flaky texture.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the large eggs with a cup of milk. Add salt and black pepper to enhance the flavors.
  4. Spread the chopped spinach evenly over the pre-baked crust. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the spinach.
  5. Pour the egg mixture carefully over the spinach and cheese, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Place the assembled quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until set and lightly golden on top.
  7. Allow the quiche to cool for about 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
