Why Make This Recipe

Asparagus quiche is a delightful dish that combines the flavors of fresh asparagus with creamy eggs and cheese. It’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even as a light dinner. This recipe is easy to make and is sure to impress your family and friends. Plus, it gives you a great way to enjoy seasonal asparagus!

How to Make Asparagus Quiche

Ingredients

  • All-purpose flour, for work surface
  • 1/2 recipe Basic Pie Dough
  • 5 large eggs, well beaten
  • 1 cup half-and-half
  • 2 tablespoons chopped scallions
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 oz. Gruyère cheese, grated (about 1 cup)
  • 4 oz. asparagus, chopped into 2-inch pieces

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 13-inch circle. Fit it into the bottom and up the sides of a deep-dish pie plate; crimp the edges. Chill the crust for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs, half-and-half, scallions, tarragon, and mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Pour this mixture into the prepared crust. Sprinkle half of the grated Gruyère cheese on top and arrange the chopped asparagus evenly. Add the remaining cheese on top of the asparagus.
  5. Bake the quiche for 45 to 50 minutes, or until it is just set. Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes before serving.

How to Serve Asparagus Quiche

Asparagus quiche can be served warm or at room temperature. It is great on its own or with a light salad. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for extra flavor.

How to Store Asparagus Quiche

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The quiche will stay fresh for up to 3 days. You can reheat it in the oven or microwave when you’re ready to enjoy it again.

Tips to Make Asparagus Quiche

  • Make sure to chill the crust before baking to keep it flaky.
  • Use fresh asparagus for the best flavor and texture.
  • Feel free to adjust the seasonings based on your taste preferences.

Variation

You can easily switch up this recipe by adding other vegetables, like spinach or mushrooms, or using a different cheese, like feta or cheddar. You can also make it crustless by pouring the filling straight into a greased baking dish.

FAQs

1. Can I use frozen asparagus instead of fresh?
Yes, you can use frozen asparagus. Just make sure to thaw and drain it well before adding it to the quiche.

2. Can I make the quiche ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the quiche and bake it ahead of time. Just reheat it in the oven when you’re ready to serve.

3. What can I serve with asparagus quiche?
Asparagus quiche pairs well with a simple green salad, fresh fruit, or even some crusty bread for a complete meal.
