Ingredients for Any Flavor Easy Quiche

  • Ready Made Pie Crust
  • 4 large eggs (or 4 flax eggs for vegan option - see notes)
  • Nonfat Milk
  • Green Onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Ground Nutmeg
  • Zucchini
  • Cheese
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (optional)

How to Make Any Flavor Easy Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Line a 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade) with parchment paper or foil, ensuring it covers the bottom and sides. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork.
  3. Blind bake the crust: Bake for 5 minutes with the foil/parchment in place. Remove the foil/parchment and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  4. Remove from oven and reduce temperature to 325°F (163°C).
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs (or 4 flax eggs for vegan option – see notes), 1 cup milk (or plant-based milk for vegan option), 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.
  6. Add 1 cup of your choice of vegetables (e.g., chopped broccoli, spinach, mushrooms, bell peppers) or 1 cup cooked and crumbled meat (e.g., bacon, sausage, ham). Stir gently to combine.
  7. In a separate small bowl, toss 1 cup shredded cheese (or nutritional yeast for vegan option) with 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour (optional, helps thicken). Add to the egg mixture and stir well.
  8. Pour the egg mixture into the pre-baked pie crust. For even baking, consider placing the quiche on a baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, loosely cover the edges with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
  10. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
