Broccoli And Goat Cheese Crustless Quiche Recipes

CRUSTLESS BROCCOLI QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F degrees and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-inch deep dish pie plate with butter.
• Melt the butter in a large sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Do not brown. Add the broccoli, ¼ teaspoon of the salt, and ⅓ cup water. Increase the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is al dente and the water has evaporated, 3-4 minutes more. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the cream, nutmeg, remaining ¾ teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper.
• Spread the broccoli and shallots evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie plate. Sprinkle the Gruyère over top. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese.
• Bake for about an hour, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then slice into wedges and serve.
• Make Ahead: This quiche can be made a day ahead of time and refrigerated. To warm up individual slices, simply reheat in the microwave for about a minute. To reheat the entire quiche, cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated 300°F oven until hot in the center, about 30 minutes.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooled quiche may also be wrapped tightly in foil and frozen for up to 3 months. Remove the quiche from the freezer about 24 hours prior to eating and reheat it, covered with foil, in a 300°F oven until hot in the center.

BROCCOLI AND GOAT CHEESE QUICHE RECIPE - (3/5)

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry dough into a round 12 inches in diameter. Drape the round over the rolling pin and carefully transfer to a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Gently ease the pastry into the pan. Trim the pastry even with the pan rim. Prick the bottom and sides of the pastry shell with fork tines. Form a double-thick 12-inch square of aluminum foil, poke a few holes in it, then press it into the pastry-lined pan. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the pastry looks dry but not brown, about 4 minutes longer. Remove from the oven; reduce the temperature to 325 degrees. Bring a saucepan three-fourths full of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain well, pat dry, and set aside. In a bowl, using a fork, beat the eggs until lightly frothy. Stir in the green onions, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Scatter the broccoli evenly in the pastry shell. Drop small clumps of the goat cheese evenly among the florets; carefully pour in the egg mixture. Bake until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. If the edges are browning too quickly, cover them with strips of aluminum foil. Transfer to a rack to cool for 15 minutes. Remove the pan rim and place the quiche on a serving plate. Serve warm. This recipe yields one 9-inch quiche; 4 to 6 servings.
