Tips:

For a crispier crust, use a combination of all-purpose flour and almond flour.
If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender or a rolling pin to crush the crackers.
Be sure to press the crust firmly into the pie plate so that it doesn't crumble when you cut it.
If you want a more flavorful quiche, use a combination of cheeses, such as Gruyère, Swiss, and Parmesan.
Add some chopped cooked bacon or sausage to the quiche for a savory twist.
If you're using fresh spinach, be sure to wilt it before adding it to the quiche.
Don't overcook the quiche, or it will be dry. The quiche is done when the center is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the quiche cool slightly before serving so that it's easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Spinach quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover spinach. With so many different variations, there's sure to be a spinach quiche recipe that everyone will enjoy.
