Quiche with Bacon and Broccoli


  • Author: Maria
  • Total Time: 50 minutes

Description

Indulge in savory perfection with my Bacon and Broccoli Quiche. This delightful dish combines crisp bacon, tender broccoli, and creamy cheese in a flaky crust for a taste sensation that’s sure to impress. Whether you’re hosting brunch or craving a comforting dinner, this quiche is sure to satisfy.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 inch pie crust (homemade or store bought) 
  • 6 eggs
  • 3/4 cup cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6oz cooked bacon – crumbled
  • 1 cup cooked broccoli spears cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon sliced scallions (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Whisk eggs, cream, salt, and pepper.
  3. If the pie crust doesn’t already come in a pie pan, drape it over a 9 inch pie pan and cinch the edges to make a cute crust. Alternatively, you can just use a fork all the way around. That looks good too.
  4. Place 3/4 of the cheese in the bottom of the pie crust.
  5. Top that with the bacon, broccoli and scallions. 
  6. Pour the egg mixture over the top and top with the remaining cheese.
  7. Bake for 40 minutes until set in the center.
  8. Let cool for 7-10 minutes before slicing and eating!

Notes

I like to use frozen broccoli spears to make things easy. Just microwave according to package instructions and slice them up a bit extra.

Alternatively, defrosted frozen spinach is a good option instead of broccoli as well.
