Passover Cheese Quiche Recipes

PASSOVER CHEESE QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 °F.
• Using a fork, prick the bottom of the pie crust all over.
• Bake the crust for 20-25 minutes until it is a light golden brown color. Remove the crust from the oven and leave to cool.
• Turn the oven heat down to 350 °F.
• Heat the olive oil in a small pan or skillet over medium high heat. Cook the onion for 5-8 minutes until soft.
• Whisk the milk, eggs and yolk together in a bowl. Add the salt, cayenne and pepper and continue to whisk until full incorporated.
• Add the onions, cheddar, mozzarella and cream cheese to the egg filling and stir well to combine.
• Carefully pour the filling into the cooled pie crust. Make sure the cheese is evenly spread out in the filling.
• Bake the quiche for 40-42 minutes until the filling is set and the crust is a golden brown color.
• Serve warm with a crisp green salad on the side.

CHEESY QUICHE CRUST

Steps:

• Place flour in a large bowl. Sprinkle in the chopped butter; rub butter into the flour until it resembles bread crumbs. Stir in the grated cheese. Sprinkle water over the flour mixture, a teaspoon at a time, stirring lightly with a fork. Add just enough water to allow the dough form a ball and cleanly leave the sides of the bowl. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Roll out dough, and place in a 9 inch pie/quiche pan. Use a fork to prick holes over the bottom of the pastry.
• Bake crust in preheated oven for 10 minutes before filling with quiche custard of your choice.

EASY BACON AND CHEESE QUICHE

• Mix the eggs and half and half in a bowl. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for an additional 35 minutes, until top of quiche begins to turn brown.
