Cheesy Sausage Quiche Recipe
Savory sausage, onions, cheese, and savory egg custard nestled in a flaky crust. This easy quiche recipe will be an instant family favorite!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust unbaked (9 inches)
- ½ pound Jimmy Dean pork sausage or another brand
- ½ cup finely diced onion
- ¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese or colby jack
- ¾ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 5 large eggs
- ½ cup whole milk or 2%
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Cook sausage and onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat till brown, drain well. Spread in the bottom of the pie shell.
- Sprinkle cheese evenly over the top of the cooked sausage mixture.
- Beat the eggs, milk, and seasonings in a small bowl. Pour the egg mixture into the pie shell on top of the other ingredients.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375° for about 40-50 minutes, or till crust is golden brown and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Notes
- I find that baking the quiche on the lowest oven rack helps prevent a soggy crust on the bottom.
- Leftover quiche can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days in an airtight container.
