Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pie crust
- 150 grams smoked salmon
- 150 grams brie cheese
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 sheet parchment paper
- 1 cup dry beans or pie weights
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pre-made pie crust and gently press it into a 9-inch (23 cm) tart or pie pan. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges.
Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill it with dry beans or pie weights. Blind bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove the weights and parchment paper. Bake for an additional 5 minutes until lightly golden. Set aside to cool slightly.
Flake the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces and set aside. Cut the brie into small chunks, removing the rind if desired.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until smooth. Stir in the chopped chives, dill, salt, and black pepper.
Arrange the smoked salmon and brie chunks evenly over the bottom of the pre-baked crust.
Slowly pour the egg mixture over the salmon and brie, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
Carefully transfer the quiche to the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature with a simple green salad or fresh fruit on the side.
