Directions

45 min.
1. Step

Preheat your oven to 375°F or 190°C. It's essential to allow your oven to heat up adequately, as under-heated ovens can make your quiche cook unevenly.

2. Step

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add in the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion turns translucent. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.

3. Step

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted. This could take around 2-3 minutes. Experts advise against overcooking spinach as it loses its nutrient value.

4. Step

In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until well blended. Gradually add in the milk, continuing to whisk. Following a slow incorporation of liquid ingredients helps prevent curdling.

5. Step

Stir in the cheese, spinach mixture, salt, nutmeg, and pepper into the egg mixture.

6. Step

Grease a 9-inch pie pan. Then pour the egg mixture into the greased pan. I like to spread the mix evenly in the pan to ensure a uniform bake and a well-structured quiche.

7. Step

Bake in your preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden and the center is set.

8. Step

Once baked, allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes before serving. Quiches are best served warm, don't rush to serve immediately after taking it out of the oven.
