Creamy Ham and Cheese Quiche Recipe

Here’s a simple recipe for a delicious creamy ham and cheese quiche:

Ingredients:

• 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 cup cooked ham, diced
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or your choice)
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Place the pie crust in a pie dish and crimp the edges. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent it from puffing up during baking.
3. Spread the diced ham evenly over the bottom of the pie crust, then sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.
4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg (if using) until well combined.
5. Pour the egg mixture over the ham and cheese in the pie crust.
6. Carefully transfer the quiche to the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
7. Once baked, remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
8. Enjoy your creamy ham and cheese quiche warm or at room temperature!
