Ingredients Needed:

  • Eggs:use fresh, large eggs for the base of this quiche.
  • Half and half:adds a creamy richness to the eggs, making a custard-like texture for the dish.
  • Salt & Black Pepper:salt enhances the flavors of all other ingredients, whilefreshly ground black pepper is preferable for its robust taste to add a slight heat and depth of flavor to the quiche.
  • Spinach:It brings a fresh and slightly earthy taste, along with a lovely color. Frozen spinach, thoroughly drained of excess moisture, can be a convenient substitute.
  • Cheese:Adds a creamy, tangy flavor. Feel free to experiment with other cheeses like Swiss, gruyere, or even a bit of feta for a different flavor profile.
  • Bacon:adds a smoky, savory depth. For a lighter option, turkey bacon or even Canadian bacon can be used.
  • Green Onions:to add a slightly sweet but tangy pop of flavor. Spring onions or chives could also work well as substitutes.

How do I store Crustless Quiche?

Leftover quiche will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 5 days after being freshly made. Once it has cooled to room temperature, store it in an airtight container, or wrap it with aluminum foil or plastic wrap to keep it fresh.

Can I freeze Crustless Quiche?

Quiche always freezes well! Simply wrap tightly or place individual slices in an airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat in the microwave or a 350-degreeF oven.

Tips and Notes

  • Make it ahead.Pouring the quiche mixture into your greased pan and refrigerate the unbaked quiche, ready to bake the next day. I rarely do this, though, because the leftovers are just as good as they are fresh! Cooked eggs will reheat perfectly, so leftovers make a great weeknight breakfast. You can also cook and freeze this Crustless Quiche to enjoy at a later date. Simply thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then reheat in a 350-degree oven until warmed, or slice and microwave individual pieces.
  • Fresh ingredients.Be sure to use the freshest ingredients possible, and especially make sure your eggs are fresh for the best end result in texture and flavor!

Crustless Quiche Variations

  • Make it dairy-free.Swap the milk for non-dairy milk and cheese (or simply omit the cheese).
  • Make it vegetarian.Skip the bacon and add in extra veggies if you desire.
  • Swap the meat.Instead of bacon, try cooked turkey bacon, breakfast sausage, diced ham, or whatever you have in the fridge.
  • Swap the veggies.Try sauteed mushrooms, red onion, cherry tomatoes, roasted bell peppers, shredded carrots, or whatever you’ve got lying around!
  • Swap the cheese.Use Swiss cheese, gruyere, mozzarella, or a combination of cheeses to add a new flavor profile. Goat cheese or feta can also be great for a tangier taste. Mozzarella, Parmesan, or Jalapeno Monterey Jack for a flavorful twist!
