Tips:
- For a crispier quiche, use a nonstick skillet over medium heat. This will help to brown the bottom of the quiche without burning it.
- If you don't have a nonstick skillet, you can grease a regular skillet with cooking spray or butter. Just be sure to watch the quiche closely so that it doesn't burn.
- To make sure the quiche is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the quiche is done.
- Let the quiche cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent it from falling apart.
- Serve the quiche with your favorite toppings, such as fresh herbs, shredded cheese, or diced tomatoes.
