Equipment

  • 9 1/4 inch pie or baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tb melted butter or ghee
  • 8 eggs
  • 1/2 C heavy cream
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/2 C thinly sliced green onion
  • 1 C shredded sharp white Cheddar (such as Kerrygold) + extra for an optional topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • With pastry brush or your finger, cover the inside of a baking dish with melted butter.
  • In a large bowl, combine eggs, heavy cream, salt, green onion, and shredded Cheddar.
  • Mix with hand mixer until the eggs are smooth and there are no large visible egg white strands.
  • Transfer to buttered dish, place in the oven and bake for 35 minutes or until set.
  • Serve with extra grated cheese and freshly ground black pepper.

Notes

Equipment: The rule is that you need a dish that is large enough to fit the egg mixture in. It will puff up a little as it cooks but not too much. I’ve used an 8 inch pie dish and a 10 inch stainless steel saute pan. The wider the pan, the thiner your quiche will be and it will cook faster. And vice versa.
