Sunday Quiche Recipe (on a Friday!)
Ingredients
Crust:
- 1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water flax egg
- 1 cup whole almonds ground into flour
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
- 1 –2½ tbsp water as needed
Filling:
- 6 eggs beaten
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
- 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
- 3 large garlic cloves minced
- 3 cups 227 g sliced cremini mushrooms
- ½ cup fresh chives finely chopped
- ½ cup fresh basil leaves finely chopped
- ⅓ cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes finely chopped
- 1 cup spinach
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- ¾ –1 tsp salt
- Pepper to taste
- Red pepper flakes to taste
Instructions
Prep the Crust:
- Start by making your flax egg: mix 1 tbsp ground flaxseed with 3 tbsp water and let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
- In a food processor, grind whole almonds into flour.
- Add dried parsley, oregano, and kosher salt. Mix until combined.
- Add the flax egg, coconut oil (or olive oil), and just enough water to bring the dough together.
- Press the dough into a tart pan. If the crust seems too dry, a little almond milk can help bind it.
- Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes, or until it’s firm and slightly golden.
Prepare the Filling:
- While the crust is baking, sauté the onions, garlic, and mushrooms in your choice of oil over medium heat until softened and fragrant.
- Toss in the spinach and sauté just until wilted.
- Remove from heat and stir in the fresh herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, nutritional yeast, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Spread the mixture evenly into the pre-baked crust.
- Bake the Quiche:
- Pour the beaten eggs over the veggie mixture in the crust.
- Bake at 350°F for 30–40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before serving, allowing the quiche to firm up perfectly.
