Steps:
- 1. I used three one cup ramekins to make these. Spray each ramekin with the butter spray. Saute the onions in the olive oil until golden brown then add the chopped broccoli florets,sliced mushrooms until just tender,season with salt and pepper then set to the side to cool.Combine the eggs,baking powder and half and half,mix them well.
- 2. Divide the broccoli mixture between the three ramekins and distribute the egg mixture between them then top with cheddar and grated cheese.
- 3. Bake in your pre-heated toaster oven at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean,enjoy!
Tips:
- Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli florets will give your quiche the best flavor and texture. If you're using frozen broccoli, be sure to thaw it and drain it thoroughly before using.
- Shred your own cheddar cheese: Pre-shredded cheese is often coated with cellulose, which can make your quiche rubbery. For the best results, shred your own cheddar cheese from a block.
- Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeaten eggs can make your quiche tough. Simply whisk the eggs until they are well combined.
- Bake the quiche until the center is set: The quiche is done baking when the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Be careful not to overbake the quiche, or it will become dry.
- Let the quiche cool before slicing: Allow the quiche to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing. This will help the quiche hold its shape and prevent it from falling apart.
Conclusion:
Broccoli and cheddar quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a quiche that is sure to impress your friends and family.
