🧂 Why We Love Quiche
- It’s forgiving. You can mix and match the fillings to use what you already have.
- It can be made ahead. It reheats beautifully and tastes just as good (if not better!) the next day.
- It’s perfect for any occasion. From baby showers to weekend family breakfasts, quiche belongs at the table.
🥚 Ingredients for the Quiche Filling
Here’s the beauty of this recipe: it’s more of a framework than a fixed formula. That means creativity is welcome!
For the base filling, you’ll need:
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup of cream
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar works great!)
- 1 cup filling(s) ― Today’s pick: sausage + caramelized onions
That’s it—just remember the 2 cups of mix-ins guideline (1 cup cheese + 1 cup other fillings).
Oh, and let’s not forget:
- 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
🥧 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Par-Bake Your Crust
Par baking helps avoid the dreaded soggy bottom. If you’ve got pie weights—great! But if not, no worries—just use a layer of uncooked beans over parchment paper to weigh it down. Bake for fifteen minutes.
Shortcut Tip: A pre-made crust from the store totally works. We love from-scratch food, but we also love shortcuts when they make sense!
2. Make Your Filling
In a mixing bowl, whisk together:
- The eggs
- Cream
- Cheese
- Your cooked sausage
- Caramelized onions
Give it a good mix until everything’s combined.
3. Bake Your Quiche
- Pour the filling into your pre-baked crust.
- Bake at 350°F for around 30 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, rotate the pan to prevent uneven browning.
- If the top is getting too dark, just tent it with foil toward the end of baking.
Use the “wobble test”: A done quiche should be set with just a gentle jiggle in the center, but no visible liquid.
4. Cool Before Slicing
This step is hard, we know. But trust us:
Let your quiche rest at least 10–15 minutes after baking. This helps it firm up so every slice is picture-perfect.
🍽️ Serving Tips
- Serve warm, room temp, or even chilled.
- Pair with fruit for a balanced plate.
