Mushroom Quiche

Makes 1 (9-inch) quiche

This hearty quiche full of mushrooms will be loved by vegetarians and meat lovers alike. Nut-free

PREP TIME: 25 minutes, plus 30 minutes to chill

COOK TIME: 1 hour 15 minutes, plus 20 minutes to cool

FOR THE CRUST

Basic Pie Dough

FOR THE FILLING

1 tablespoon oil

½ cup diced onion

3 cups sliced mushrooms

¼ cup diced red pepper

4 large eggs, room temperature

½ cup milk

½ cup sour cream

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

1½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

TO MAKE THE CRUST

1.Roll out the dough. Place the pie dough on a lightly floured work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Place the dough into a 9-inch pie dish. Leave a 1-inch overhang around the edge. Trim off any excess dough. Fold the overhang underneath itself around the edge, crimping as you go. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

2.Blind-bake. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line the dough with parchment paper or foil. Fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown. Remove the parchment and weights. Prick the crust with a fork. Bake for about 7 minutes more, or until the bottom crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Lower the oven temperature to 375°F.

TO MAKE THE FILLING AND ASSEMBLE THE QUICHE

1.Sauté the vegetables. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, mushrooms, and red pepper and sauté until cooked, 5 to 7 minutes.

2.Make the filling. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sour cream, salt, and pepper.

3.Assemble the quiche. Layer the mushroom mixture and 1 cup of cheese on the bottom crust. Pour in the egg mixture. Top with the remaining ½ cup of cheese.

4.Bake. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the center is set. The quiche may bubble up but will flatten as it cools. Set on a wire rack to cool for 15 to 20 minutes.
