CRUSTLESS CRAB QUICHE



Crustless Crab Quiche image

This is a lowfat, delicious quiche! I am always asked for this recipe (I serve often at brunches). Can be made ahead & baked next day, and/or frozen. Leftovers are wonderful when warmed in microwave and placed on toasted english muffin. My 2 year-old loves it too. NOTE: Do not use real crab meat; it will not come out the same.

Time 55m

Yield 1 pie, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 large eggs
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 (6 ounce) cans crabmeat, drained
1 cup swiss cheese, shredded
1 cup mushroom, chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
nutmeg
9 inches pie shells

Steps:

  • Mix eggs, milk and cheese.
  • Add chopped mushrooms and drained crab meat.

  • Place pie ring (or use aluminum foil ring) over crust.
  • Bake at 350 degrees (F) for 40 minutes.
  • Remove pie ring and bake 5 - 10 minutes longer until lightly browned.

Tips:

  • For the perfect quiche crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. This will help to create a flaky, tender crust.
  • Be sure to pre-bake the quiche crust before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • When making the filling, be sure to use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the quiche.
  • Don't overfill the quiche crust. Otherwise, the quiche may overflow during baking.
  • Bake the quiche until the center is set and the top is golden brown. This usually takes about 30-35 minutes.
  • Let the quiche cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the quiche from falling apart.
