How to Make Caramelized Onion And Blue Cheese Quiche
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large cast iron skillet or oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced, and season generously with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes, until deeply caramelized and golden brown.
- Place your 8-9 inch pie crust in a pie pan or tart pan. If using store-bought, remove from packaging and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Blind bake the crust for 6 minutes. This prevents a soggy bottom.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon (chopped), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
- Carefully remove the pie crust from the oven and discard the parchment paper (if used).
- Evenly spread 4 ounces of crumbled blue cheese across the bottom of the pre-baked crust.
- Top the blue cheese with the caramelized onions, distributing them evenly.
- Pour the egg and cream mixture over the onions and cheese.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is golden brown and the center is set. The filling might puff up slightly.
- Let the quiche cool slightly before slicing and serving. This allows it to settle and makes it easier to serve.
