Ingredients
- 1 9-inch pie crust
- 14 ounces canned artichoke hearts squeezed dry of any excess moisture
- 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach thawed and all excess moisture squeezed out
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ¾ cup heavy cream or regular whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce such as Crystal
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1½ cups Monterey jack cheese shredded, divided
- ½ cups Parmesan Cheese shredded, divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Press pie crust into a 9" glass pie dish. Crimp edges for decorative finish or use the tines of a fork to create a pattern on the edges of the crust. Place a piece of parchment paper in the pie crust and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 8-9 minutes until pie crust is set and just barely starting to brown.
- Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.
- Whisk eggs, milk, cream, hot sauce, pepper and garlic powder in a large bowl.
- Add the thawed and well-drained spinach and artichokes. Mix well.
- Reserve about ⅓ cup of the cheese for garnish and add the remainder to the spinach artichoke mixture.
- Pour the spinach artichoke custard into the pie crust, smoothing it with a spatula. Top with remaining cheese.
- Bake for about 30 minutes uncovered, then lay a piece of aluminum foil over the top of the quiche and bake until set about 30 minutes more.
- Remove from oven and let cool for 15-20 minutes before serving.
