Time 1h5m

Yield 1 pie, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

9 inches pie crusts
4 cups broccoli florets, cut small
8 ounces cream cheese spread with garlic and herbs
1/2 cup half-and-half cream
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
salt and pepper
4 green onions, finely chopped
parmesan cheese

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375. Pre-bake pie crust for 10 minutes. Remove from oven.
Steam broccoli 3 to 4 minutes. Pat dry. Scatter broccoli over cooked pie crust.
Beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in half & half, eggs and yolk. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in green onions.
Pour cheese mixture over broccoli. Sprinkle top with parmesan cheese. Bake until set, 35 minutes or until browned and filling is set.
Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

Choose the right cheese: A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese will give your tart a bold flavor, while a milder cheese like mozzarella or fontina will create a more subtle taste. You can also use a combination of cheeses to create a unique flavor.
Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli will give your tart the best flavor and texture. If you only have frozen broccoli, be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked broccoli will be mushy and bland.
Use a good quality pie crust: A homemade pie crust will give your tart the best flavor and texture. However, you can also use a store-bought pie crust if you are short on time.
Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly: This will ensure that the tart is cooked through and has a crispy crust.

Conclusion:

Cheese and broccoli tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. With its creamy cheese filling, tender broccoli, and crispy crust, cheese and broccoli tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
