Description
Warm, flaky, and tangy—this Spinach Feta Quiche blends creamy eggs, earthy spinach, and salty feta into a crowd-pleasing brunch or meal-prep hero.
Ingredients
1 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
5 large eggs
¾ cup whole milk
¼ cup heavy cream (or all milk)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cups fresh baby spinach (or 1 cup thawed frozen spinach, squeezed dry)
1 small onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: pinch of freshly grated nutmeg or red pepper flakes
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Blind-bake frozen crust for 8–10 minutes; let cool.
2. Heat olive oil in skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion until translucent (3–5 minutes).
3. Add garlic and spinach; cook until wilted or warmed through. Remove from heat.
4. Whisk eggs, milk, cream, salt, pepper, and optional nutmeg in a bowl.
5. Spread crumbled feta on the crust bottom, then top with spinach mixture.
6. Pour egg mixture evenly over the filling.
7. Bake 35–40 minutes until center is just set.
8. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
9. Tent foil around crust edges if browning too quickly.
Notes
Customize with mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, olives, or use goat cheese.
