Best Easy Quiche Recipe

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

Make pie crust (or use store bought).

Line with foil/parchment paper and fill with pie weights (or dried beans or rice).

Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius).

While the crust is baking, make the filling.

Begin by adding onion, garlic, olive oil and your desired add-ins to a large nonstick fry pan. Cook until onions are translucent, and vegetables are soft (about 5-10 minutes depending on the vegetables you choose). If using meat like bacon or sausage, omit the oil and cook it with the vegetables, finely diced. If you’d like to add spinach, finely chop it and add it at the end of cooking.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and paprika until combined.

Add cooked vegetables and cheese and stir.

Pour the filling into the baked pie crust. Put a pie crust shield on the outer crust to keep it from getting too brown.

Bake the quiche at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 35 to 45 minutes or until the filling is set.

Let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving slightly warm.
