Easy Quiche Recipe
Description
This Easy Quiche Recipe starts with a prepared unbaked pie crust filled with a mixture of cooked, chopped bacon and crumbled blue cheese coated with a bit of flour to evenly distribute throughout the filling. A custard composed of half and half and eggs is poured over the filling. Baking at 375°F allows the custard to set fully while the crust becomes crisp and golden. The blue cheese contributes a distinctive sharpness balanced by the smoky bacon.
The quiche is baked until the center is firm to the touch and lightly golden on top, creating a smooth, creamy texture inside with a flaky, flaky crust. Allowing it to cool briefly before slicing helps the quiche hold together when served.
This dish is suitable for breakfast, brunch, or a light lunch, pairing well with fresh salad greens or fruit for a balanced meal.
