Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Baby spinach
- 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 6 Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with a small amount of olive oil or cooking spray.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and minced garlic, cooking until the garlic becomes fragrant (about 1 minute).
Add the baby spinach to the skillet in batches, stirring until wilted. Once all the spinach is wilted, remove it from heat and set aside to cool for a few minutes. Press out any excess liquid with a paper towel or clean kitchen towel.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using) until fully combined.
Spread the cooked spinach evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie dish. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the spinach.
Carefully pour the egg mixture over the spinach and feta, ensuring the liquid is evenly distributed.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for at least 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, or allow to cool completely for a chilled option.
