- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 4 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish.
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Drain off any excess liquid.
- Spread the spinach and onion mixture evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese and Parmesan cheese over the spinach mixture in the crust.
- Slowly pour the egg mixture over the cheese and spinach.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
- Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- You can use frozen, thawed, and squeezed-dry spinach if fresh is unavailable.
- For a lighter quiche, substitute half-and-half for the heavy cream.
- If you prefer a richer flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the egg mixture.
