Description
A simple crustless broccoli cheese quiche made with eggs, sharp cheddar, and broccoli.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- ½ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 1½ cups broccoli, cooked
- 1 cup extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Sliced chives or green onions for topping, optional
Instructions
For the broccoli:
- Wash your broccoli thoroughly and steam on the stovetop, or if pre-cut, cook according to package directions. The broccoli has to be cooked before adding to the quiche, otherwise, it will be hard and crunchy.
- Chop the broccoli into small pieces, remove any large stems.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease a 9” pie dish or 8×8 baking dish and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, crack and whisk 6 eggs.
- Whisk in ½ cup whole milk, ¼ cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon onion powder, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
- Stir in 1½ cups cooked, chopped broccoli and 1 cup shredded cheese.
- Transfer the quiche mixture to your greased baking dish.
- Bake for 28-35 minutes, watching for browning. The center should be set and won’t jiggle once fully cooked.
- Let rest for at least 5 minutes. If you have sticking on the edge of the quiche, take a knife and run it around the edge of the dish.
- Top with chives or green onions and flaky salt and enjoy!
Notes
To reheat a slice of quiche, microwave 45 seconds on a microwaveable safe plate.
