Family Brunch is Incomplete Without This Fluffy Vegan Quiche

If brunch happens to be the highlight of your week, you’re probably always looking for tasty new dishes to serve to your loved ones. This vegan quiche may just be the thing for you, and it’s extremely easy to make.

This delicious recipe was shared by Lindsay Ostrom, founder of the hit food blog Pinch of Yum. She recommends using mushrooms, asparagus, and spinach, but they’re not a must. You can get experimental with your veggies, and add pretty much anything to the mix.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 minced shallot
  • 2 cups veggies – mushrooms, asparagus, and spinach
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded Gouda cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • unbaked pie crust

Instructions:

  1. After melting the butter, add the mushrooms to the pan and sauté them until they’re brown and soft.
  2. Add the shallots and asparagus, and season them with some salt. Let all the ingredients sauté properly.
  3. Whisk heavy cream with your eggs, and add cheese, cooked veggies, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Place the crust into a 10-inch pie pan, and poke tiny holes in the bottom with a fork. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and bake the crust for approximately 10 minutes.
  5. Take the partially baked crust out of the oven, and pour the egg and veggie mixture inside. Put the crust back in the oven and bake it for another 15 minutes.
  6. Remove the pan out of the oven again and use some foil to cover the pie edges to stop them from going brown.
  7. Bake the pie for additional 15 minutes, and slice and serve it to your liking.
