CHEDDAR-CRUSTED & BACON BROCCOLI QUICHE RECIPE BY TASTY



Cheddar-Crusted & Bacon Broccoli Quiche Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: shredded cheddar cheese, unsalted butter, all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, ice water, bacon, small broccoli floret, large eggs, milk, pepper, pie weight

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Breakfast

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1 cup unsalted butter, 2 sticks, room temperature
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 ½ teaspoons salt, divided
5 tablespoons ice water
4 strips bacon
2 cups small broccoli floret
6 large eggs
1 cup milk
½ teaspoon pepper
pie weight, coffee beans, or dried beans

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Add 2 cups (200 g) of cheddar cheese and the butter to a large bowl. Mix to combine with an electric hand mixer or stand mixer.
  • Add the flour, paprika, garlic powder, and 2 teaspoons salt and mix well. Add 3 tablespoons of ice water and mix. Add the remaining ice water 1 tablespoon at a time. The dough should hold together when pinched, but crumble apart if you break it up in your hand. If it seems too dry, add a bit more ice water.
  • Transfer the dough to a clean surface and knead with your hands until it comes together. Shape the dough into a disc, then wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough into a circle about ⅛ inch (8 mm) thick. Carefully transfer the crust to a 9½-inch (24-cm) glass pie dish.
  • Trim the edges (save the trimmings to make crackers!). Poke holes in the bottom of the crust with a fork, then use the tines to crimp the edges. Line the dough with parchment paper and fill with pie weights.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, until the edges are crisp.
  • While the crust is baking, prepare the fillings. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp, 5-7 minutes. Using tongs, remove the bacon from the skillet and let drain on paper towels until cool enough to handle.
  • Add the broccoli to the skillet and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Chop the bacon.
  • Remove the pie weights from the crust, then add the broccoli and chopped bacon to the center. Sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
  • In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the milk, remaining ½ teaspoon salt, and the pepper. Whisk to combine.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the fillings in the crust.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned. Cover the edges with tinfoil if they are starting to burn.
  • Let the quiche cool for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Enjoy!

Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 325 degrees F. Wrap tortillas in Reynolds® Aluminum Foil and bake for 10 minutes or until soft. Arrange the tortillas to make a crust in a Reynolds® Bakeware Pie Pan, overlapping and trimming as needed, and making sure the edges stay below the top edges of the pan.
  • Cook onion and bacon in a large skillet until onion is tender and bacon is crisp. Drain on paper towels.
  • Whisk together eggs, sour cream, and salt in a large bowl. Add onion mixture, corn, and cheese; mix well. Pour egg mixture into tortilla-lined pie pan.
  • Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edge of crust with aluminum foil to prevent overbrowning.
  • Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
