List of Ingredients

â—¦ 1 ½ tablespoons fine dry plain bread crumbs
â—¦ 1 cup frozen chopped onions
â—¦ 1 cup diced cooked ham (¼ pound)
â—¦ 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
â—¦ 1 (8-ounce) package shredded Swiss cheese (2 cups)
â—¦ 4 large eggs
â—¦ 1 cup heavy cream
â—¦ 1 cup whole milk



Recipe

Preheat oven to 425° F with rack in middle. Butter quiche dish, then sprinkle all over with bread crumbs.

Cook onions with ham in butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, about 5 minutes. Spread in dish, then evenly sprinkle cheese on top.

Whisk together eggs, cream, milk, and ½ teaspoon pepper and pour over cheese. Bake until top is golden and custard is set in center, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool slightly before cutting into wedges.
