Ingredients
Scale
1 (9-inch) Pie Crust
10-12 ounces Fresh Spinach
1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter
1/2 cup Yellow Onio
2 cloves Garlic
4 Large Eggs
1 1/2 cups Heavy Cream
1/2 cup Whole Milk
1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
1 cup Gruyère Cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If using a store-bought crust, follow the package directions for pre-baking. If using a homemade crust, line your pie plate, prick the bottom with a fork, and bake for 10-15 minutes until lightly golde
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute, then add the spinach and cook until wilted. Drain excess moisture
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper until smooth
- Sprinkle half of the Gruyère and Parmesan cheese over the bottom of the crust, add the spinach mixture, and sprinkle the remaining cheeses on top. Pour the egg mixture over everything
- Place the quiche on a baking sheet and bake for 40-50 minutes, until the center is just set and top is golden brown. Let it cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing
Notes
Make sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the spinach before adding to the quiche.
Allow the quiche to rest before serving for cleaner slices.
