Easy Spinach Quiche
Ingredients
  • 1 (15 ounce) package refrigerated pie crusts
  • 4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 (12 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
  • 1 cup finely chopped onion
  • 12 eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit or 200 degrees Celsius.
2
To prepare the crusts, place two 9-inch pie plates on a flat surface and cover them with layers of aluminum foil to prevent any accidental spills during baking.
3
To ensure the crusts cook evenly, cover them with a double layer of aluminum foil and fill each plate with pie weights or dried beans.
4
Bake the crusts in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until the edge of the crust is golden brown.
5
Carefully remove the aluminum foil and pie weights from the oven, taking great care not to burn yourself.
6
Continue baking the crusts for an additional 5 minutes, or until they have set and reached a golden brown color.
7
Allow the crusts to cool for a short period of time, giving you a brief respite from the baking process.
8
Reduce your oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius, preparing it for the next stage of preparation.
9
Spread a layer of cheese, spinach, and onion evenly across each crust, creating a uniform base for the next ingredients.
10
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined, then divide the mixture evenly between the two crusts.
11
Bake the filled crusts in the center of your preheated oven, allowing them to cook until golden brown and firm in the centers, taking approximately 45 minutes.
12
Once done, remove your baked goods from the oven and let them cool completely before serving.
