This autumnal quiche with pumpkin and Brussels sprouts tastes delicious fresh from the oven as well as cold the next day. You can prepare the quiche with a ready-made dough from the refrigerated section, a homemade shortcrust pastry, or a rustic (and healthy) wholemeal quiche dough.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) using conventional oven settings (top and bottom heat). Wash or peel the pumpkin, remove the seeds, and dice the flesh. Trim, wash, and quarter the Brussels sprouts. Peel and slice the onion.

Place the vegetables on a baking sheet, season generously with salt and pepper, and pre-cook in the oven for 15 minutes. Then reduce the oven temperature to 180°C.

Meanwhile, whisk the eggs in a large bowl, stir in the sour cream and cheese, and season generously with salt and pepper.

Grease a quiche dish with a little oil or butter, roll out the quiche dough onto a rolling pin and carefully unroll it over the quiche dish. Press the dough into the corners, pull it up the sides, and trim any excess.

Prick the pastry base with a fork. Then spread the pre-baked vegetables over the pastry and evenly distribute the egg mixture on top.

Bake the pumpkin quiche for 45 to 50 minutes at 180°C in a preheated oven until the egg mixture is set and has a golden brown color.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Brussels Sprout Preparation 🥬
Halve and lightly roast Brussels sprouts before adding to the quiche to intensify their flavor and remove excess moisture that could make the filling soggy.
Pumpkin Moisture Management 🎃
Roast or sauté pumpkin pieces beforehand to concentrate their flavor and remove excess water, ensuring a firm and creamy quiche filling.
Blind Baking Technique 🥧
Pre-bake your quiche crust for 10-15 minutes with pie weights to prevent a soggy bottom and ensure a crisp, golden crust that holds up to the moist filling.
Cheese Layer Trick 🧀
Sprinkle a thin layer of grated cheese on the bottom of the pre-baked crust before adding vegetables to create a moisture barrier and add an extra flavor dimension.
Custard Consistency Hack 🥚
Whisk sour cream into your egg mixture for a richer, more luxurious custard texture that stays creamy and prevents the filling from becoming too dense.
