Ingredients
- 1 pie crust homemade or store-bought, pre-made
- 4 egg large
- 2 Cups heavy cream
- 1 pound zucchini sliced thin with skin on
- 1 1/4 Cups mozzarella cheese shredded, divided (any cheese works)
- 1 Teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 Teaspoon salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375℉.
- Prepare your pie crust according to recipe directions or line a pie dish with a store-bought pie crust.
- In a large skillet add olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add sliced zucchini and cook for 4-6 minutes or until softened. Remove from heat and allow to cool while you prepare the rest of the filling.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- To assemble to the pie, add 1 cup of shredded cheese to the bottom of the prepared crust. Layer the softened zucchini on top of the cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture over the zucchini and top with the remaining 1/4 cup shredded cheese.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until the center is set. If the crust edges begin to brown, use a pie shield or foil wrapped around the edge. Let the quiche sit for 15 minutes before slicing.
