Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch pre-made pie crust
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 6 cups fresh spinach, washed and chopped
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 half cup heavy cream
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently into the bottoms and sides. Trim any excess off the edges.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until it wilts, approximately 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, and heavy cream until well combined.
Stir in the crumbled feta cheese, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg into the egg mixture.
Add the slightly cooled spinach and onion mixture to the bowl with the egg mixture, stirring to combine all ingredients evenly.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
Allow the quiche to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your spinach and feta quiche warm or at room temperature.
