How to Make Baldpate Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix together 1 pound of cooked sausage (browned and crumbled), 1 packet (1 ounce) dry onion soup mix, and 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese.
  3. Spread the sausage mixture evenly in a well-greased 9-inch glass pie pan.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups refrigerated pie crust mix, 1 cup milk, and 3 large eggs.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage mixture in the pie pan.
  6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the quiche is golden brown and set. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
  7. Let the quiche cool slightly before brushing the top with 1 tablespoon of melted butter for extra richness.
