Instructions

First, preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Add pie crust to pie plate and crimp the edges. Gently pierce with a fork several times.

Bake pie crust for 10 minutes. Then, remove from oven. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a large bowl, add the 5 eggs. Whisk.

Then, add in milk, pepper and salt. Whisk to combine.

Once the pie crust has cooled, place almost all of cheese into the pie crust. Reserve some shredded cheese for the top of the quiche.

Then, wash and dry spinach. Spread spinach leaves on top of the cheese.

Pour the whisked egg mixture down into the pie crust. Add the remaining shredded cheese on top.

Bake quiche for 35 to 40 minutes or until the quiche is no longer jiggly in the center. The crust should be golden brown.

Finally, remove from oven. Serve hot and fresh!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Pre-Bake Your Crust 🥧
Blind bake the pie crust at 375°F for 8-10 minutes before adding filling to prevent a soggy bottom and ensure a perfectly flaky, golden crust.
Squeeze Out Spinach Moisture 💧
After sautéing baby spinach, squeeze it thoroughly in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess water, which prevents a watery quiche and concentrates flavor.
Room Temperature Egg Mixture 🥚
Bring your eggs and milk to room temperature before whisking together—this ensures a smooth, homogeneous custard that cooks evenly without curdling.
Layer Your Ingredients Strategically 🎯
Distribute spinach and cheese evenly across the crust before pouring custard to ensure every slice has perfect flavor balance and consistent texture.
Test for Doneness Accurately 🔍
Insert a knife near the center—when it comes out clean or nearly clean with just a slight jiggle, remove immediately, as carryover cooking will set the remaining center perfectly.
