Description
This easy mushroom quiche recipe transforms simple pantry staples into a golden, flaky masterpiece with a creamy, cheesy center and deep, earthy mushroom goodness. It’s an ideal choice for busy weeknights, weekend brunch, or any hearty, family-friendly meal.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 0.5 cup cold unsalted dairy butter, cubed
- 0.25 cup ice water, plus more if needed
- 10.5 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 100 g small yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 7 oz cherry tomatoes, halved (Or grape tomatoes if available)
- 2 teaspoons Za’atar spice blend
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream (Half-and-half also works)
- 0.5 cup full-fat dairy milk
- 1.5 cups grated microbial rennet white cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup pine nuts, toasted for crunch and garnish
- 0.25 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped, for garnish
- 0.5 teaspoon sumac, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Prep Your Ingredients: Prepare crust dough; chill 30 min. Roll, fit 9-inch tart pan, prick. Slice mushrooms, dice onion, mince garlic. Toss tomatoes with oil, za’atar.
- Sauté Mushrooms & Aromatics: Sauté mushrooms, onion, garlic in olive oil 5-7 min until softened and fragrant. Let cool slightly.
- Whisk the Custard: Whisk eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, pepper until combined. Stir in cheddar cheese for a creamy mushroom quiche filling.
- Assemble Your Quiche: Scatter cooled mushrooms in crust. Pour custard. Arrange tomatoes on top.
- Bake to Golden Perfection: Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake the mushroom quiche 40-50 min until center is set, top golden brown.
- Rest and Serve: Remove mushroom quiche from oven; let cool 15+ min before slicing. Serve warm.
Notes
Keep butter and water as cold as possible for a flaky crust. To avoid a soggy bottom, blind-bake your pie crust well. Don’t overbake to prevent a cracked top; quiche sets as it cools. Tent with foil if browning fast. Use generous salt, pepper, and fresh herbs to boost flavor. Customize with spinach, kale, or different cheeses (feta, goat, Swiss). For dietary needs, consider plant-based milk/cheese, gluten-free crust, crustless, vegan (tofu base), or paleo (nut-flour crust) variations.
