Three Cheese Quiche

Step 3: Prepare the Filling

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg until fully combined.
2. Stir in the shredded cheddar, Swiss, and Parmesan cheeses.
3. If using, fold in sautéed onions, cooked bacon, ham, or vegetables.

Step 4: Assemble the Quiche

1. Pour the cheese and egg mixture into the pre-baked crust, spreading it evenly.
2. Lightly tap the pan on the counter to remove air bubbles.

Tip: Avoid overfilling; the custard rises slightly during baking.

Step 5: Bake the Quiche

1. Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is lightly golden.
2. To check doneness, insert a knife into the center. It should come out clean, with just a slight custard coating.

Step 6: Cool and Serve

1. Allow the quiche to cool for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
2. Serve warm or at room temperature. Pair with a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.

Tips for the Perfect Three Cheese Quiche

• Cheese choice matters: Sharp cheddar adds tang, Swiss adds creaminess, and Parmesan adds depth. Mixing textures and flavors creates the perfect balance.
• Don’t rush baking: Quiche needs gentle, even heat. A slightly undercooked center can set as it cools.
• Make ahead: Quiche tastes even better the next day. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a month.

This Three Cheese Quiche is creamy, cheesy, and wonderfully satisfying, yet surprisingly simple to make. Whether you’re hosting brunch or enjoying a cozy weekend breakfast, this quiche will impress anyone lucky enough to taste it.
