How to Make Apple Sausage Cheddar Quiche
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Fit a 9-inch deep-dish pie crust into a pie plate. Fold edges under and crimp.
- Prick the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork.
- Blind bake the crust for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- While the crust bakes, brown 1 lb of sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon until fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled sausage, 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1 medium apple (peeled, cored, and diced), 1/4 cup chopped onion, 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.
- Pour the sausage mixture into the pre-baked pie crust.
- Sprinkle lightly with paprika.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
