Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  2. 2

    Add Ice Water

    Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. You may not need all the water.

  3. 3

    Chill the Dough

    Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 4

    Roast the Zucchini

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the zucchini into thin rounds. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and black pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    While the zucchini is roasting, dice the tomatoes and set them aside.

  3. 6

    Mix the Egg Mixture

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Stir in the fresh basil.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 8

    Roll Out the Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle large enough to fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Place the dough in the dish and trim any excess.

  3. 9

    Layer the Filling

    Spread the roasted zucchini and diced tomatoes evenly over the crust. Crumble the chèvre cheese over the vegetables.

  4. 10

    Add Egg Mixture

    Pour the egg and milk mixture over the filling, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

  5. 11

    Bake the Quiche

    Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
