This is somewhat like a quiche. The crust consists of Cheddar cheese, which is delicious. A must try.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 head fresh broccoli, chopped
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon dry mustard
¼ cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon butter
1 onion, chopped
¼ pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup half-and-half cream
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Bring about 1 inch water to a boil in a pot. Place the chopped broccoli in a steamer basket over boiling water, and steam 5 minutes, or until tender but firm.
  • In a bowl, mix the Cheddar cheese, 3/4 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and mustard. Mix in 1/4 cup butter until evenly moist. Press into the bottom and sides of an 8 inch pie dish.
  • Melt the 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat, and saute the onion and mushrooms until tender. Stir in 2 tablespoons flour, half and half, 1 teaspoon salt, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat. Mix in steamed broccoli. Gradually stir in eggs. Transfer to the pie crust.
  • Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and continue baking 20 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie didn't turn out. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The pie was easy to make, but it didn't turn out very well. The crust was too dry and the filling was too runny.

The pie was a bit bland. I think I would add some more seasoning next time.

This broccoli cheese pie was a hit! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was creamy and cheesy. I added some cooked bacon to the filling for extra flavor, and it was delicious.
