Crustless Broccoli, Bacon, and Cheddar Quiche
This crustless quiche combines eggs, whole milk, Bisquick baking mix, salt, and pepper with grated Parmesan and shredded cheddar cheeses, steamed broccoli florets, and optional chopped bacon or ham. Baked until golden and set, the result is a rich, dense savory custard with tender broccoli and melted cheeses. Skipping a crust makes it easier and lower in carbs, while retaining creamy flavor and firm texture.

Ingredients
- 4 egg
- 1 1/2 cups milk whole
- 3/4 cups Bisquick baking mix or flour + 1 teaspoon baking powder, or other baking mix
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 and grease a quiche or pie dish (or baking dish up to 9x13 inches) with butter or oil. Place prepared dish on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil, just in case of overflow while baking. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs (4), milk (1.5 cups), bisquick (3/4 cup), kosher salt (1/2 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/2 teaspoon) until well combined.
- Stir in the grated parmesan cheese (1 cup), the steamed broccoli florets, and the shredded cheddar cheese (8 oz./2 cups).
- Pour batter into greased dish and bake (on a foil covered baking sheet in case of overflow) for about 60 minutes or until golden brown on top and set (it shouldn't jiggle when you shake it).
- Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes
- Cooking time varies by baking dish; watch for a set quiche that does not jiggle and tent with foil if browning too fast.
- Make mini quiches in a greased muffin pan baked at 350°F for about 30 minutes.
- Omit Bisquick and add two eggs to make a low carb/keto version.
- Use frozen steamed broccoli florets straight from a steamable bag for convenience.
- Prepare ahead by assembling and refrigerating covered for up to 48 hours before baking or refrigerate and reheat baked quiche for 15-20 minutes at 350°F covered with foil.
