Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 cup baby spinach, chopped
- 0.5 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 cup pre-shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 9-inch pie crust, unbaked
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place your unbaked pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer. Gradually whisk in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
Season the Alfredo sauce with freshly ground black pepper and kosher salt. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Slowly pour in the cooled Alfredo sauce, whisking constantly to combine.
Stir in the chopped baby spinach, crumbled bacon, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
Pour the quiche filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Place the quiche on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your rich and creamy Simply Quiche Alfredo!
