Method
Crust Preparation
Make the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Add the chilled, diced butter and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Add Ice Water
Stir in the ice water one tablespoon at a time until the mixture comes together. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Pre-bake the Crust
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the weights and parchment and bake for an additional 10 minutes until lightly golden.
Filling Preparation
Prepare the Broccoli
Blanch the chopped broccoli in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until bright green, then drain and set aside.
Mix the Filling
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.
Combine Ingredients
Add the blanched broccoli and shredded cheddar cheese to the egg mixture, stirring gently to combine.
Fill the Crust
Pour the filling mixture into the pre-baked crust, spreading it evenly.
Bake the Quiche
Bake the quiche in the preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden on top.
Cool and Serve
Allow the quiche to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious Cheddar & Broccoli Quiche!
