Instant Pot Crustless Quiche Recipe

tbsp Butter

medium Mushrooms ((~5 oz, sliced))

Onion ((diced))

Garlic ((grated

thyme

lb Kale ((dinosaur/lacinato variety; de-ribbed and chopped))

Eggs

Heavy cream

Sea salt

Lemon

Cheddar cheese ((shredded))

Ricotta cheese

Water

Add the butter to the Instant Pot and press &quot;Saute.&quot; Once the fat has melted, add the mushrooms, onion, garlic and thyme, sauteing for 10 minutes until lightly caramelized. Add the kale and saute for another 2 minutes just until wilted. Press the &quot;Keep Warm/Cancel&quot; button.

Use butter to grease a 1.5-quart (1.5-L) casserole dish with a glass lid that fits inside the Instant Pot. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and cream together. Add the sea salt, lemon zest, 3/4 of the cheddar cheese (reserving the rest for the top) and the mushroom-kale mixture, gently stirring to fully combine.

Pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish. Evenly drop little dollops of ricotta into the custard filling. Place the glass lid on top of the casserole dish.

Place the Instant Pot trivet inside the Instant Pot. Pour 1 cup (237 ml) of water into the Instant Pot. Carefully transfer the covered casserole dish to the Instant Pot on top of the trivet. Place the lid on the Instant Pot, making sure the steam release valve is sealed.

Press the &quot;Manual&quot; setting and decrease the time using the &quot;-&quot; button until you reach 20 minutes. When the Instant Pot is done and beeps, press &quot;Keep Warm/Cancel.&quot; Allow the Instant Pot to release pressure naturally for 10 minutes.

Using an oven mitt, &quot;Quick Release&quot;/open the steam release valve. When the steam venting stops and the silver dial drops, carefully open the lid.

Carefully remove the casserole dish from the Instant Pot and remove the lid. Add the leftover cheese to the top of the quiche. Either place the Instant Pot lid back on the Instant Pot for about 3 minutes to melt the cheese or carefully remove the casserole dish and place under a preheated broiler for 3-5 minutes to brown the cheese on the top.

water

eggs

milk

chives

salt

black pepper

cheddar cheese

Place a metal trivet or round cake cooling rack in the bottom of the pressure cooker pot. Pour in water.

Tightly wrap a 6- or 7-inch cake pan with removable bottom with aluminum foil. Let excess hang over the top, or create a sling from more foil, to remove pan later. Coat inside of pan with nonstick spray.

Whisk together eggs, milk, chives, salt, and pepper.

Put the cheese into cake pan, then pour the egg mixture over the top. If needed, stir a little to make sure the ingredients are evenly dispersed.

Place the pan on the trivet inside the pressure cooker. Lock the lid in place. Select High Pressure, then 30 minutes, making sure the valve in the lid is closed.

When the pressure cooker beeps, wait 10 minutes, then turn the lid valve for a quick pressure release. Carefully open the lid, remove the pan, and let cool slightly before setting on a can or jar to lift the bottom up out of the pan.

Slice and serve, or cool completely and reheat individual slices in the microwave.
