Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pie pastry (for a 10-inch quiche or tart pan or 9-inch pie plate)
1 tablespoon dry breadcrumbs
8 ounces bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 medium onion, minced
2 cups chopped portabella mushrooms
2 cups chopped fresh spinach, packed (very well dried)
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups grated cheddar cheese, divided use
6 ounces cream cheese
4 eggs
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Sprinkle bottom of pastry-lined quiche/tart pan or pie plate with 1 tbsp dry breadcrumbs (this will absorb any excess moisture).
  • Place bacon in a large skillet; cook over medium high heat until evenly brown; remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper toweling; set aside.
  • With 2 tbsp of the bacon fat, sauté onion and mushrooms until all the liquid released by the mushrooms has evaporated; add spinach and cook 1-2 minutes, just until spinach wilts; add reserved bacon, coriander and nutmeg and season lightly (remember there will be salt in the cheese); place in pastry and top with 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese.
  • Beat together cream cheese, eggs and milk; season to taste; carefully pour over quiche and gently shake quiche to distribute custard.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until quiche is golden-brown, sprinkling with 1/2 cup of cheese 10 minutes before quiche is done (put the quiche directly on the oven floor for the last 10-15 minutes of baking to crisp up the crust); cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Time 4h5m

Yield Makes one 9-inch quiche

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 stick cold unsalted butter (4 tablespoons), cut into pieces
1 large egg yolk
3 large eggs
3/4 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup whole milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese (2 ounces)
2 1/2 cups lightly packed baby spinach

Steps:

  • Crust: Pulse flour and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk together egg yolk and 2 tablespoons ice water. Add to flour mixture and pulse until moist crumbs start to form (no longer). Transfer mixture to a piece of plastic wrap, and using wrap and your hands, form into a disk. Refrigerate, wrapped, at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to an 11-inch round. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate; trim edges to a 1-inch overhang. Tuck overhang under and crimp as desired. (To create arc pattern, press a spoon into dough.) Wrap in plastic; freeze at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line crust with parchment and fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until dough underneath parchment is dry, 25 minutes; remove parchment and beans. Bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let cool slightly.
  • Filling: Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees. Whisk eggs until smooth, then whisk in cream, milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in half of bacon and cheese. Pour custard mixture into crust, stopping just short of the top; be careful not to overfill. Press spinach into custard, leaving some poking out from top.
  • Sprinkle with remaining bacon and cheese. Bake 10 minutes at 375 degrees, then about 55 minutes at 325 degrees. Let cool about 1 hour before serving.
