Three Cheese Quiche

This recipe creates a delicious and savory quiche bursting with three types of cheese. You can use a store-bought crust for convenience, or try your hand at making your own homemade crust.

Ingredients:

Component Ingredient Quantity
Crust Pie Crust (store-bought or homemade) 9 inches
For the Filling:

Ingredient Quantity
Eggs 3
Heavy Cream 1/2 cup
Whole Milk 1/2 cup
Salt 1/2 teaspoon
Black Pepper 1/4 teaspoon
Nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon
Gruyere Cheese 1/2 cup
Swiss Cheese 1/2 cup
Cheddar Cheese 1/2 cup
Instructions:

Prepare the Crust (15 minutes):

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
If using a store-bought pie crust, follow the package instructions for pre-baking.
For a homemade crust, roll out the dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish and carefully transfer it in.
Blind bake the crust: Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment paper and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the crust is lightly golden. Let it cool slightly.
Make the Filling (5 minutes):

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and whole milk until well combined.
Add the salt, black pepper, and nutmeg to the egg mixture and whisk to incorporate.
Assemble and Bake (50-55 minutes):

Sprinkle the grated Gruyere, Swiss, and cheddar cheeses evenly over the bottom of the pre-baked pie crust.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the cheese, ensuring even distribution.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
Serve (10 minutes):

Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing.
Cut the quiche into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy it with a fresh green salad, fruit salad, or roasted vegetables.
