Instructions
 

Prepare the Vegetables

  • Blanch the spinach in boiling water for 1-2 minutes, then immediately plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain well and chop.
  • Dice the mushrooms, finely chop the onion and carrot.

Make the Creamy Mixture

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cream, grated mozzarella cheese, and salt.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour and milk until smooth to create a slurry, ensuring no lumps remain. Add the slurry to the cream mixture and whisk thoroughly.

Combine Ingredients

  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the blanched spinach, mushrooms, carrots, onion, black pepper, and the cream mixture. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.

Bake the Quiche

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a square or rectangular baking dish with butter. Pour the quiche batter into the prepared dish.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.

Serve & Enjoy

  • Let the quiche cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for the Perfect Crustless Vegetable Quiche:

  • Don't overcook the spinach! Overcooked spinach will be mushy and affect the overall texture of the quiche.
  • For extra flavor, sauté the onions, carrots, and mushrooms before adding them to the egg mixture. This will enhance their sweetness and create a more complex taste.
  • Feel free to experiment with other vegetables! Add bell peppers, zucchini, or asparagus for extra color and flavor.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, you can use a combination of cheeses, such as Gruyere, Parmesan, or cheddar.
