What Are Some Variations of This Simple Quiche Recipe?

Here’s how to safely reheat your leftover quiche before eating.
Refrigerated Quiche: If you’ve stored the baked quiche in the fridge as recommended above, you should have refrigerated each slice separately in foil. Keeping each individual portion in the foil, reheat your homemade quiche in a 325°F oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until fully heated through. Using a thermometer, check that the center of each quiche slice has reached at least 165°F—then you’re ready to chow down!
Frozen Quiche: If you’ve frozen a full quiche as directed in the storage instructions above, remove it from the freezer and place it in the refrigerator to thaw overnight. Once your quiche has thawed, unwrap the plastic wrap and bake it in a 350°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until heated through. If you froze your quiche in individual slices, let the slices thaw overnight in the fridge on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. The next day, cover each individual slice in foil and bake them at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes. Using a food thermometer, make sure each portion of your quiche has reached a safe internal temperature of at least 165°F.

How Can I Reheat Quiche?

Whipping up this tasty quiche for an upcoming event or holiday gathering? We’ve got a shortcut to help you save time the day of. The night before you want to serve your quiche, make the filling, form the pie crust in the pie plate and cover the pie crust with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the pie crust and the quiche filling separately overnight. In the morning, just stir the pre-assembled filling, add it to the crust and bake your homemade quiche as directed! Who doesn’t love getting a head start?

Can I Make Homemade Quiche Ahead of Time?

This quiche needs just 40 to 50 minutes in a 350°F oven. Not sure how to tell when it’s cooked through? Insert a knife in the center of the quiche—it should come out clean when it’s ready to remove from the oven.

How Long Should I Bake Quiche For?

Not feeling the crust? You can make a crustless quiche, also called an egg bake. You’ll get the rich, savory quiche flavors you love, with a light crustless twist that lets the egg filling take the spotlight. We wouldn’t recommend following this quiche recipe if you want a crustless quiche—try one of our ultra-easy <a href="https://www.pillsbury.com/everyday-eats/breakfast-brunch/best-egg-bake-recipes/">egg bakes</a> , or whip up a comforting egg-based breakfast casserole. You’ve got options!

Can I Make a Crustless Quiche?
