How to Make Quiche

recipe Buttermilk Pie Crust

eggs, (at room temperature)

(6 fl oz/180 ml) heavy cream

(4 fl oz/120 ml) milk

salt

black pepper

vegetables

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 9-inch (23 cm) deep dish pie pan with the buttermilk pie crust.

Line the crust with parchment paper, fill it with pie weights (rice, beans, etc.), and bake for 15-20 minutes.

Remove the paper and weights and continue baking for 5-10 more minutes until the bottom of the crust looks dry and just beginning to show a bit of color. Remove from the oven and lower the heat to 325°F (165°C). Set the crust aside while you prepare the filling.

To Blind Bake The Pie Crust

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth. Lastly, stir in your choice of cheese, protein, and vegetables.

To Make The Filling

Pour the filling into the crust and bake for 45-60 minutes, until the filling is slightly puffed and set in the middle. It will spring back slightly when done and feel firm under your finger.

Let cool down for 30 minutes before serving. This is best the day it is made, but you can store leftovers, loosely covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

To Bake The Quiche

I love making no-crust quiche in my vintage casserole dishes!! And I thought I had it down to a science, except the middle would never cook and I'd have to go in with a fork to mix it up, and then bake it more. But your instructions were the answer to my dilemma! I was cooking it too hot!! Thanks!!

Oh my! I made this quiche for lunch today using sharp cheddar cheese, broccoli, and diced ham. It was absolutely delicious; wouldn’t change a thing! The blind-baked buttermilk pie crust was flaky and added soooo much flavor to the already amazing flavors of the quiche. I plan to make this again really soon. Thanks for another winning recipe, Gemma!

Yum!  Love scratch baking.  You make it easy and I love knowing what's in my food.  Super easy savory crust.

Your recepies are so easyy...nd yumy
I follow u from pakistan.
Lots of love.

I make quiche frequently and I use all sorts of add ins, usually minimum of 10 eggs, meat combinations, veg combinations, cheese combinations, like chev goat cheese a lot!  I never blind bake the crust and it’s always flaky.  Always complimented on my flaky crust!  60 to 80 min baking time.  They are rarely the same.  All add in veg and meats are pre cooked.
