Today I’m sharing with you the most delicious quiche recipe! It’s so easy to throw together and can be served hot or cold which makes it the perfect make-ahead dish for your next party. I made it for a ladies brunch a few months ago. I’ve tried several quiche recipes in the past and this one is by far my favorite.
I put crispy bacon and shredded cheddar cheese in this one but you could really customize it and add any combination of toppings you want. I decided to use phyllo dough as the crust on this one but I’ve done pie crust also and they are both delicious!
Bacon and Cheddar Quiche
Ingredients:
- 6 eggs
- 8 oz cottage cheese
- 6 oz sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 5-6 slices cooked bacon, chopped
- 6-8 sheets phyllo dough, thawed according to package directions
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Brush a sheet of phyllo pastry with butter and fit into the bottom of a greased 9″ pie dish or springform pan like this one,
with the ends hanging over the side. Repeat with the remaining sheets placing them on top. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl beat together the eggs and cottage cheese.
- Stir in the bacon and cheddar cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture into the prepared pan and cover with foil.
- Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake at 300 degrees for 30 more minutes or until the egg is set.
- This is delicious served warm out of the oven or reheated the next day.
** You can substitute the bacon and cheddar for any combination of veggies, ham and cheese or even cooked apples would be delicious.
