Indulgent Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Quiche: The Busy Cook’s Delight
Hey there, fellow food enthusiasts! Have you ever found yourself staring at your fridge after a hectic day, wondering how to whip up something comforting yet effortlessly gourmet? I’ve been there too, caught in the whirlwind of balancing budgets, schedules, and that insatiable craving for something a bit extra. Let me share with you my go-to recipe for those kinds of days: the mouthwatering Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Quiche. Perfect for brunch, lunch, or a light dinner, this quiche is where indulgence meets practicality.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 store-bought pie crust (because who has time to make one from scratch?)
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- A pinch of nutmeg (trust me on this one)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme (optional but elevates the flavor)
Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Unroll your pie crust into a pie dish and let it chill in the fridge while you prep the filling.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they’re a deep golden brown—about 20-25 minutes. Patience is key here!
- Beat together the eggs and cream in a mixing bowl. Stir in the caramelized onions, goat cheese, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and thyme.
- Pour the mixture into your chilled pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
- Pop it in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, until the filling is set and the top is golden. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into it (if you can wait that long!).
- Serve warm and bask in the compliments that are sure to follow.
