Meat Lovers Quiche Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 unbaked 9 inch pie crust dough
• 200 g sausage meat, cooked and crumbled
• 150 g ham pieces, diced
• 4 large eggs
• 120 ml milk
• 120 ml heavy cream
• 0.75 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 150 g shredded cheese

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) and place a rack in the center position to ensure even cooking.

2. 2

   Mix the Egg Custard: In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

3. 3

   Prepare the Pie Crust: Gently press the unbaked pie crust dough into a 9 inch pie dish, trimming any excess dough around the edges to fit neatly.

4. 4

   Assemble the Filling: Evenly spread the cooked sausage meat and diced ham pieces over the bottom of the pie crust. Then sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly on top of the meat layer.

5. 5

   Pour the Custard: Carefully pour the prepared egg mixture over the meat and cheese filling, filling the pie dish almost to the top but avoiding overflow.

6. 6

   Bake: Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any spills and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top is lightly golden brown.

7. 7

   Rest and Serve: Remove the quiche from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This resting time allows the custard to set fully and makes slicing easier and cleaner.
