How to Make Easy Crustless Quiche with Spinach
✱ Be sure to see the recipe card below for exact ingredients and full recipe instructions!
Step 1 | Prep and saute onions
Let’s begin by preheating the oven to 350℉ and greasing a 9-inch pie plate with oil or cooking spray.
Then, in a large skillet, warm the oil and add the sweet onion, cooking until it is translucent and starts to brown. This should take about 7-8 minutes.
Step 2 | Add garlic and spinach
Now, add the garlic and cook for about one minute or until it’s fragrant.
Then, stir in the chopped spinach in batches and cook until wilted. After, remove the pan from the heat and set it aside.
Step 3 | Combine egg mixture and bake
Next, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
Stir in the cheese and the spinach mixture.
Then, pour it all into the greased pie pan and pop it into the oven. Bake for 45 minutes or until the edges brown and the center of the quiche is set.
Step 4 | Cool, slice, and serve
Finally, remove the pie dish from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Then, it’s time to slice, serve, and enjoy!
Recipe FAQs
Watery quiche is not uncommon because spinach releases excess moisture while cooking. But as long as you cook it long enough and bake it at the right time, it should have a perfect texture. If the quiche is too watery, increase the bake time by a few extra minutes.
You can cover the quiche as it bakes if desired. Especially if the quiche has a crust, the aluminum foil will help keep the crust from burning.
Absolutely! Make it ahead and store it properly to be served at a later time. You can reheat it in the microwave or until warmed through in a preheated oven at 350°F.
