Very Best Crustless Quiche Food

CRUSTLESS QUICHE MASTER RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. For the pan: Brush pan with the soft butter and sprinkle the grated Parmesan evenly on top. Or for a Quick Crust, pulse bread into crumbs in a food processor. Heat butter or oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add bread crumbs and stir until evenly toasted, about 5 minutes. Evenly spread crumbs in a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie pan. Place pan on a baking sheet.
• Whisk the half-and-half, eggs and yolks in large glass measuring cup. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, cayenne or paprika to taste. Spread half the desired filling evenly in the pan, top with about half the cheese; repeat with remaining filling and cheese. Pour the custard over the fillings. Top with more herbs or cheese as desired.
• Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, about 40 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack before serving.

THE VERY BEST CRUSTLESS QUICHE (IMPOSSIBLE QUICHE!)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 390F / 200C.
• Melt the butter in a large frying pan or saucepan, then cook the onions slowly for about 10 minutes or until soft and beginning to caramelize.
• Add the mushrooms to the onions in the pan and cook for a further couple of minutes.
• Grease a standard quiche dish (or other round pan) with a little butter, then spread the onions and mushrooms evenly over the bottom. Scatter over the chopped ham and cheese.
• Slowly add the milk to the flour in a large jug. Whisk continuously so that there are no lumps, then whisk in the eggs, mustard, and salt and pepper.
• Pour the egg mixture over the fillings in the dish/pan, then bake for 30 (to 40) minutes or until the mixture is just cooked in the centre. Slice and serve!

Steps:

• Beat the eggs with a wire whisk until well mixed.

CRUSTLESS QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a medium skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. When the butter starts to froth and brown slightly on the edges, shut off the heat and add the leeks. Turn the heat back to medium and season the leeks with salt and pepper. Stir to blend. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the leeks become only slightly tender. Transfer the leeks to a baking sheet and place the sheet in the refrigerator to cool.
• Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Whisk the eggs to break them up. Add the slices of goat cheese and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Use a whisk to break up the goat cheese and blend it with the eggs. When it is fairly smooth, whisk in the cream, milk, hot sauce and Worcestershire.
• The test: It's a lot harder to check the seasoning of an uncooked quiche batter. If desired, heat a pan, add a touch of butter and cook a tiny bit of the batter for 1 minute. Taste and adjust seasoning of batter, if needed.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch baking dish with the remaining tablespoon of butter and fill with the cooled leeks and top with batter. Place the dish in the center of the oven and bake for about 20 minutes. Open the oven door and gently layer the Brie slices on top of the quiche. Close the oven and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until the top is slightly brown and bubbly.

EASY CRUSTLESS QUICHE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter and line a 23cm round deep, springform cake tin so the paper comes 2-3cm up the sides of the tin.
• Melt the butter in a frying pan. Add the onion and pancetta and cook over a low heat for 10 mins or until softened and translucent.
• Bring a pan of lightly salted water to the boil. If using broccoli, cut into small florets, if using asparagus, keep whole. Blanch the veg for 2 mins, drain and leave to steam-dry.
• Whisk the eggs, cream and two thirds of the cheese together in a bowl. Season with salt and black pepper. Mix through the onion and bacon mixture. Pour into the tin and top with the veg and remaining cheese. Bake for 25-30 mins or until golden brown with a slight wobble in the centre.

CRUSTLESS SWISS CHARD QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Wash and dry swiss chard. Cut off the very ends of the stems. Roughly chop (leaving stems intact) the chard.
• Add onion and Chard to the oil and saute until stems are tender (do not overcook). Add salt & pepper to taste.
• Meanwhile, grate 2.5 cups of cheese. Use whatever varieties you want/have. Be creative! I used Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan, and Cojito.
• Wisk eggs. Add milk and cheese. Fold in the onion/chard mixture. Add salt & pepper to taste, if necessary.
• Pour into a pie dish that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
• Bake for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown and no liquid seeps when you poke it with a knife.

VERY VEGGIE CRUSTLESS QUICHE

Steps:

• Cut asparagus into 2-inch sections.
• Steam the broccoli and asparagus until it's a little soft (not soggy) and put it in a lightly greased deep-dish pie pan.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the veggies.
• Next steam the mushrooms and spinach until slightly wilted (you could sautee it too). Put it on top the cheese.
• Put the rest of the ingredients in a blender (I used my magic bullet) and blend until smooth.
• Pour egg mixture over veggies. I poked a knife into the veggies in a few places just to make sure the egg gets down in there - it doesn't have to be completely mixed together.
• Bake at 375 degrees for about 40 minutes. Let sit about 10 minutes before serving.
