Provided by annconnolly

Categories     Savory Pies

Time 1h

Yield 1 Pie

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (9 inch) pie crusts
3 ounces rind removed brie cheese or 3 ounces camembert cheese
6 ounces cream cheese
2 tablespoons softened butter
3 tablespoons cream
2 eggs
1/2 tablespoon minced chives
salt
white pepper
cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Line a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom with the pie crust. Line the inside of the crust with crumbled wax paper or parchment paper and fill with dried beans.
  • Place in oven and bake about 12-15 minutes or until partially done. Remove the beans and the paper and bake an additional 2-3 minutes to dry out the bottom.
  • Preheat oven to 375F to bake the quiche.
  • Using a fork, blend the cheese with the butter and cream.
  • Beat in the eggs.
  • Force this mixture through a sieve to remove any lumps.
  • Stir in the chives. Taste and season with the salt, pepper and cayenne.
  • Pour into the pastry, place the pan on a baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the quiche is puffed and browned.

Tips:

  • For the perfect flaky crust, use cold butter and work it into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can result in a tough crust.
  • To prevent a soggy quiche, pre-bake the crust for 10-12 minutes before filling it. This will help to set the crust and prevent the filling from seeping into it.
  • Use a variety of cheeses to create a flavorful quiche. A combination of hard and soft cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and brie, will give the quiche a rich and creamy texture.
  • Add your favorite vegetables to the quiche for a nutritious and colorful dish. Broccoli, spinach, and mushrooms are all great options.
  • Season the quiche generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Bake the quiche in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the quiche cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the quiche to set and prevent it from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Brie and broccoli quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With its flaky crust, creamy filling, and flavorful toppings, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, try making a brie and broccoli quiche. You won't be disappointed!
