This asparagus quiche recipe creates a creamy, structured filling with tender asparagus and cheese baked into a crisp crust. It’s a simple method that delivers clean slices and balanced texture for brunch or a light meal.

Ingredients

Scale

1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1–2 inch pieces

5 large eggs

1 cup milk or half-and-half

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella)

1/2 small onion, finely diced

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt, to taste

Black pepper, to taste

Optional: fresh herbs like thyme or parsley

Optional: spinach

Optional: cooked chicken or salmon

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F.

2. Blind bake the pie crust for 8 to 10 minutes, then set aside.

3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

4. Add diced onion and cook until soft.

5. Add asparagus and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until slightly tender.

6. In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.

7. Stir in shredded cheese.

8. Spread the cooked vegetables evenly in the crust.

9. Pour the egg mixture over the top.

10. Gently tap the pan to remove air bubbles.

11. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, rotating halfway through.

12. Remove when the center is set with a slight jiggle.

13. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Pre-cook vegetables to prevent excess moisture in the quiche.

Blind baking helps keep the crust crisp.

Do not overbake to maintain a smooth texture.

Let the quiche rest before slicing for clean cuts.

Store leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat gently.
