Recipe Introduction
Quiche makes a great meal any time of day and is always a great way to use up leftover cooked meat…ham, bacon, sausage, chicken even ground beef. We love this one.
List of Ingredients
1 deep dish pie crust, store purchased or made from scratch
6 large eggs
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups diced ham
1 cup frozen chopped broccoli florets, thawed
1 1/2 cups sharp shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 375° F.
Place the pie crust into a deep dish pie plate, pricking the bottom and sides all over with a fork. Press the edges of the pie crust just over the edge of the pie plate and seal by pressing down a bit on the pie crust (this helps the pie crust not be able to shrink back when baked).
Put parchment paper on top of pie crust and fill the empty pie crust with pie weights or dry beans, then bake the pie crust on the center oven rack, uncovered, for 10 minutes. (This is just par-baking the pie crust. You will bake it again once it's full of the quiche filling.)
In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs and cream together; stir in the remaining ingredients and combine well. Pour egg mixture into the prepared par-baked pie crust.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350° F. Bake the quiche, uncovered, on center oven rack 50-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of the quiche comes out clean. Let cool 5 minutes before slicing into pieces.
