Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 large eggs
2/3 cup whole milk
¼ cup half-and-half
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
Pinch ground nutmeg (optional)
1 1/2 cups mix-ins of choice: See below for suggestions and ingredient notes for a broccoli bacon version
2/3 cup grated Gruyère cheese (or swap fontina, sharp cheddar, or smoked mozzarella)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Cooked (crumbled bacon)
Chopped and sautéed broccoli
Caramelized onions
Cubed leftover ham
Roasted vegetables (roughly chopped)

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a deep 9-inch pie dish with nonstick spray.
  • Prepare any mix-ins (see recipe notes for a broccoli bacon version and the blog post above for more suggestions).
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half-and-half, salt, pepper, mustard, and nutmeg.
  • Scatter the mix-ins evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
  • Sprinkle the cheese on top.
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture into the dish. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the chives over the top.
  • Bake the quiche on the baking sheet until the center is set, about 35 minutes. It should look puffed and golden at the edges, and when a thin, sharp knife is inserted in the center, the center should be cooked through without visible liquid. Let cool a few minutes. Cut into big wedges. Enjoy warm.

LOBSTER QUICHE

Categories     Brunch     Bake     Lobster     Summer     Pastry

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie, 6 to 8 slices (level: easy)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Crust
1 recipe Traditional Pastry Piecrust dough for a 9-inch single-crust pie (page 5)
1/4 cup heavy cream (to glaze the crimped pie edges)
Filling
1/2 pound fresh lobster meat (if purchasing whole lobsters, about three 1-pound lobsters yield 1/2 pound of lobster meat)
1 cup shredded smoked gouda cheese
1/4 cup chopped scallions
3 large eggs
1/2 cup half-and-half
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • To prepare the pie shell, on a clean, lightly floured work surface, roll out half a ball of dough with a rolling pin until it forms a 10-inch circle. Wrap the remaining half of the dough tightly in plastic wrap and reserve it in the refrigerator for future use for up to 5 days. Fold the circle in half, place it in a 9-inch pie plate so that the edges of the circle drop over the rim, and unfold the dough to completely cover the pie plate. Brush the edges of the pie shell with heavy cream to create a perfect, golden brown finish. Keep the pie shell close by, as you will add ingredients one at a time.
  • To prepare the filling, sprinkle the fresh lobster meat evenly across the bottom of the pie shell. Evenly distribute the smoked gouda and scallions over the lobster meat.
  • In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, combine the eggs, half-and-half, salt, and pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the pie shell, covering the lobster, gouda, and scallions.
  • To bake, place the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350°F and continue baking for 40 minutes, or until the quiche is firm in the middle. Transfer the pie plate to a wire cooling rack and allow the quiche to cool and set for 15 minutes before serving.
  • Cooked Lobster Quiche can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. An uncooked quiche can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. To optimally keep quiche, put it in the freezer uncovered and let it freeze on a flat surface. Once the quiche has frozen, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and return it to the freezer.
