Ingredients
 

  • For the Crust:
  • 1 pre-made pie crust or homemade if preferred
  • For the Filling:
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup grated Gruyère cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs such as chives, parsley, or thyme

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Prepare the Pie Crust:
  • Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
  • Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling.
  • Pre-bake the crust for about 8 minutes to help it set up and prevent sogginess. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  • Make the Filling:
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until well combined.
  • Stir in the grated Gruyère, cheddar, and crumbled feta cheese.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  • Mix in the chopped fresh herbs.
  • Assemble the Quiche:
  • Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust, making sure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Bake the Quiche:
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.
  • To check if it's done, insert a knife into the center of the quiche; it should come out clean.
  • Cool and Serve:
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This resting time helps the filling set up and makes slicing easier.
  • Cut into wedges and serve warm.
