Zucchini Quiche

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 50 minutes
Total Time 1 hour
Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 2 Zucchini
  • 1 teaspoon Olive Oil
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Butter
  • 1 cup Sliced Mushrooms
  • 5 Eggs
  • ½ cup Heavy Cream
  • ½ cup Whole Milk
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Instructions

  • Start by heating your oven to 350 degrees and thinly cutting the zucchini into round slices.
  • Take half of the zucchini and place it in a bowl with the olive oil. Dust with salt and pepper and stir to coat the zucchini.
  • Butter an 8-inch pie pan and then arrange the olive oil coated zucchini slices in a layer covering the bottom and sides of the pie pan. Place in the oven to bake for 20 minutes.
  • Once the 20 minutes are up, remove the zucchini crust from the oven. Arrange a layer of mushrooms on top of the zucchini crust, and then place a layer of sliced zucchini on top of the mushrooms. Whisk the eggs, cream, milk, and a bit of salt and pepper together. Whisk rapidly for a solid 2 minutes until the eggs are frothy - this makes the quiche really light. Pour the egg mixture into the crust and top with the cheese.
  • Bake the quiche for 30-35 minutes, or until the center of the quiche sets.
