Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Place and shape the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges. Poke holes into the bottom using the tines of a fork. Place a piece of parchment paper into the pie crust and fill with either pie weights or dried beans. Par-bake the crust for 15 minutes.
- Add the butter to a large skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the onion and saute for 3-4 minutes, or until translucent. Mix in the garlic and continue cooking for another 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add spinach and saute for 2-3 minutes more, or until wilted.
- Whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, pepper, paprika, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
- Sprinkle ¾ cup of the cheese into the bottom of the par-baked pie crust, then add the spinach, pour in the eggs, and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Mix everything together lightly using a fork.
- Bake at 375 for 40-45 minutes or until the center just barely jiggles.
- Allow to rest for 10-20 minutes before slicing in and serving with fresh parsley, if desired.
