How to Make Cheddar Cheese Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch fluted tart pan with removable bottom using cooking spray.
  2. Lightly spray each sheet of phyllo dough (8 sheets total) with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  3. Carefully lay one sheet of phyllo in the tart pan, pressing it gently into the bottom and up the sides.
  4. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets, layering and slightly overlapping each sheet to create a sturdy crust. Trim any excess dough.
  5. Place the tart pan on a baking sheet for easier handling.
  6. Sprinkle 1/3 cup (40g) shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the phyllo crust.
  7. Add 1 cup (150g) of your favorite chopped vegetables (e.g., spinach, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers).
  8. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup (120ml) milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
  9. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables and cheese.
  10. Top with the remaining 1/3 cup (40g) shredded cheddar cheese.
  11. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
