Ingredients
- 1 regular size frozen pie crust not deep dish (Gluten Free or Regular both work well)

- ⅛ C flour Gluten Free or Regular both work well
- ¼ t pepper
- ½ t salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the pie crust on a baking sheet. To prevent the bottom from puffing up, gently prick the bottom and sides with a fork. Bake unfilled for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl combine the eggs, milk or cream, shredded cheese, flour, pepper, & salt. Whisk these ingredients together.
- Stir in 1 C fillings of your choice (meat and/or veggies) to the egg mixture.
- Pour the filling into the pie crust then spread out the fillings evenly with a spoon.
- Bake 40-50 minutes or until crust is slightly browned and the quiche is firm to the touch.
Notes
Tips for Success
*To avoid over-browning your crust, loosely cover it with foil if it gets too dark before the quiche is fully baked. *Choose vegetables that aren’t high in water content—like tomatoes or zucchini—as they can make the quiche soggy. *Don’t over bake. The quiche should be slightly firm to the touch in the center but still creamy.5 Easy Quiche Fillings to Try
