QUICHE RECIPE
This is a perfect base quiche recipe and it's all baked in a super flaky homemade pie crust. Use a combination of milk and heavy cream for the richest, creamiest filling and add your favorites such as bacon, feta cheese, ham, white cheddar cheese, crab meat or spinach.

Steps:
- I like to make sure my pie dough is prepared before I begin the quiche. Make pie dough the night before because it needs to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before rolling out and blind baking (next step).
- On a floured work surface, roll out one of the disks of chilled dough (use the 2nd pie crust for another recipe). Turn the dough about a quarter turn after every few rolls until you have a circle 12 inches in diameter. Carefully place the dough into a 9-inch pie dish. Tuck it in with your fingers, making sure it is completely smooth. To make a lovely edge, I do not trim excess dough around the edges. Instead, fold the excess dough back over the edge and use your hands to mold the edge into a rim around the pie. Crimp the edges with a fork or use your fingers to flute the edges. Chill the pie crust in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and up to 5 days. Cover the pie crust with plastic wrap if chilling for longer than 30 minutes.
- While the crust is chilling, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line the chilled pie crust with parchment paper. Fill with pie weights or dried beans. Make sure the weights are evenly distributed around the pie dish. Bake until the edges of the crust are starting to brown, about 15-16 minutes. Remove pie from the oven and carefully lift the parchment paper (with the weights) out of the pie. Prick holes all around the bottom crust with a fork. Return the pie crust to the oven. Bake until the bottom crust is just beginning to brown, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside. (Crust can still be warm when you pour in the filling. You can partially pre-bake the crust up to 3 days ahead of time. Cover cooled crust tightly and refrigerate until ready to fill.)
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (177°C).
- In a large bowl with a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, salt, and pepper together on high speed until completely combined, about 1 minute. Whisk in add-ins and then pour into crust.
- Bake the quiche until the center is just about set, about 45-55 minutes. Don't over-bake. Use a pie crust shield to prevent the pie crust edges from over-browning. Allow to cool for 15 minutes. Top with optional toppings before slicing and serving, if desired. Or you can cool the quiche completely before serving- it's fantastic at room temperature!
- This quiche makes great leftovers! Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°; prick the crust all over with a fork.
- Line it with tin foil and weight the bottom with a pile of dried beans, rice, or other weights that will sit flat on the surface.
- Bake 12 minutes; remove from the oven and carefully remove the weight and foil; turn the oven to 325°.
- In a bowl, combine the eggs, cheese, cream, and seasonings; beat until well blended.
- Place the baked crust on a baking sheet; pour the egg mixture into the crust, right to the top.
- Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the oven; bake 30-40 minutes, until the mixture is set but still moist; it should still jiggle just a little in the middle (cover pie crust edges with foil if getting too brown).
- Cool on a rack; serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Mix the flour and butter together thoroughly until it turns into a dough, then rub the dough with your hands until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add the egg yolk and 2 tablespoons of cold water and the process it with an electric hand mixer until the dough comes back together again, in a smooth ball. wrap the dough in clingfilm and chill it in a fridge for 30 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 170°C.
- Roll out the pastry dough on a lightly floured work surface, then use it to line a pastry pan that fits your dough in. Roll the rolling pin over the edges of pan to cut any excess pastry from the edges. Chill for 30 minutes in the fridge.
- Spread the soft cheese evenly at the bottom of the pastry. Beat the egg, milk and salt until smooth and fully blended. Pour it over the cheese in the pastry case.
- Bake it in the centre of the oven until the centre of the quiche is almost set but jiggles slightly when the dish is gently shaken and when a knife is inserted near the centre of the quiche, it comes out clean. Let the quiche stand for 5 minutes to cool down, then cut into slices. Sit Back, Relax, and Enjoy!
EASY HAM, CHEESE, EGG QUICHE
Delicious prepared with either real ham or turkey ham, this simple quiche has become a favorite in our house. I remember eating it periodically at church potlucks as a child. Butter and cheddar add to the flavor, as does using Omega 3 eggs (Saunders or Eggland's Best). I also use Bisquick for the biscuit mix but do recommend you make your own biscuit mix for health reasons. I use unsalted butter and skim milk. You may use a round 10" cake pan instead of a pie plate. We tend to get 4 large servings out of this, but one could get 6-8. Enjoy!
