Instructions
1
Prepare the Crust:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling, and bake for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
2
Cook the Broccoli and Onion:
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook until just tender, about 5 more minutes. Spread this mixture evenly over the pre-baked crust.
3
Mix the Eggs and Dairy:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in the grated cheddar cheese.
4
Assemble the Quiche:
Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the broccoli and onions in the pie crust. Make sure the filling is evenly distributed.
5
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
6
Serve:
Allow the quiche to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This rest period helps the quiche set and makes slicing easier.
