Three Cheese Quiche

Triple Cheese Savory Quiche
A rich, cheesy quiche featuring Gruyere, Swiss, and Cheddar. Use a ready-made crust for convenience or make your own for a homemade touch.

Ingredients

Crust:

  • Pie crust (store-bought or homemade) – 9 inches

Filling:

  • Eggs – 3
  • Heavy cream – 1/2 cup
  • Whole milk – 1/2 cup
  • Salt – 1/2 tsp
  • Black pepper – 1/4 tsp
  • Nutmeg – 1/4 tsp
  • Gruyere cheese, shredded – 1/2 cup
  • Swiss cheese, shredded – 1/2 cup
  • Cheddar cheese, shredded – 1/2 cup

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust (15 minutes)

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • For store-bought crust, follow package instructions for pre-baking.
  • For homemade crust, roll dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish and carefully transfer it.
  • Blind bake: Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake 10 minutes, then remove weights and paper and bake another 5 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool slightly.

2. Make the Filling (5 minutes)

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, and milk until smooth.
  • Season with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg, mixing well.

3. Assemble and Bake (50–55 minutes)

  • Sprinkle shredded Gruyere, Swiss, and Cheddar evenly in the pre-baked crust.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the cheese, spreading evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, until the filling is set and the top is golden. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.

4. Serve (10 minutes)

  • Let the quiche rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Cut into wedges and enjoy warm. Serve alongside a fresh salad, fruit, or roasted veggies.
