Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 store-bought pie crust
- 5 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream optional (see notes)
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1.25 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
- 2 green onions thinly sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF and grease an 8-inch pie pan with butter or nonstick baking spray.
- Unroll the pie crust and add it to the pie pan. Poke the bottom of the crust with a fork a few times. Place a sheet of parchment paper over the crust and fill it with pie weights (or uncooked rice or beans).
- Bake for 10 minutes, then remove the pie weights and set the crust aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, garlic, and salt until smooth and well combined.
- Sprinkle the diced ham and 1 cup of cheddar cheese evenly over the bottom of the par-baked crust. Pour over the egg mixture and top with the sliced green onions and remaining ¼ cup of cheese.
- Reduce the oven to 375ºF and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer jiggles when shaken.
- Allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing.
- Store any leftover quiche in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.

Notes
- Heavy cream: heavy cream adds a nice richness to the quiche, but you can substitute milk if you’d like!
