Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
- 150 grams Fresh spinach
- 200 grams Shredded Swiss cheese
- 240 milliliters Heavy cream
- 120 milliliters Whole milk
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pre-made pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges, then set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg until fully combined.
Sprinkle half of the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
Spread the cooked spinach evenly over the cheese layer in the crust.
Pour the egg and cream mixture carefully over the spinach and cheese layers.
Top the quiche with the remaining Swiss cheese, spreading it evenly across the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown. The center should no longer jiggle when gently shaken.
Remove from the oven and let the quiche rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
