Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1 pie crust round , store-bought or homemade

For the filling:

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 to 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning, or a small handful of fresh herbs like chives, oregano, or basil
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch red chile flakes, optional
  • 1 medium broccoli crown , cut florets into small bite size pieces (about 2 cups)
  • 1 small roma tomato, quartered, seeded, and then diced into small pieces (about ½ cup)
  • ¾ cup sharp cheddar cheese, or something comparable, freshly grated

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie pan
  • Cutting Board
  • Chef's Knife
  • Mixing Bowl

Instructions

Prepare the dough:

  • Prepare your dough, and line it in your 9-inch pie pan and keep it cool in the fridge until you’re ready to use it. Click here to see how I prepare my homemade dough. Or if you’re using a store bought crust, then be sure to keep it in the fridge until you’re ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 350 °F

Fill the pie:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, add your eggs, milk, scallions, Italian seasoning, garlic powder,salt, pepper, and red chile flakes, and mix well together. Lightly fold in your broccoli, tomatoes, and cheese into your egg mixture and then pour the mixture into your pie pan.

Bake the pie:

  • Bake on the center rack until there is no jiggle in the center of the quiche and the top is slightly golden, 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes. This is important so that the quiche can settle and cool a bit. It will be hard, but you can do it. 🙂
  • Slice, serve, and enjoy!
