Spinach and Gruyere Quiches
Spinach and Gruyere Quiches
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter 3 shallots, minced 3 bunches flat-leaf spinach, thick stems removed and leaves roughly chopped Coarse salt and ground pepper 8 ounces Gruyere cheese, grated (about 2 cups) 1 recipe Basic Pie Dough for Spinach and Gruyere Quiches, fitted into two 9-inch pie plates 8 large eggs 3 cups half-and-half 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks set in upper and lower thirds. In a large skillet, heat butter over medium. Add shallots, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add as much spinach to skillet as will fit; season with salt and pepper, and toss, adding more spinach as room becomes available, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
Transfer spinach mixture to a colander. Press firmly with the back of a spoon to squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Divide spinach mixture and cheese between prepared crusts. Place each crust on a separate rimmed baking sheet.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Dividing evenly, pour egg mixture into crusts.
Arrange baking sheets on racks, and bake until center of each quiche is just set, 55 to 60 minutes, rotating sheets from top to bottom halfway through. Let quiches stand 15 minutes before serving.

Martha Stewart Member Rating: 5 stars 05/06/2018 With a 10" pie dish, I used the full amount of the dough (normally for 2 pie crusts) as I hadn't made a quiche in 25 years, so didn't trust my abilities with a small amount of dough. The method that Martha uses with rolling out the dough on a dusted piece of parchment paper is great. I still had some patching to do afterwards but when the quiche was done, you couldn't tell - guess my patching skills might be better than my rolling ;-) For my 10" pie dish, I used 1/2 of the filling ingredients, however realized that this wasn't enough. Next time I would use 2/3 as with a wider pie dish, I need the filler to be deeper. I made the quiche this morning as a "trial run" for Mother's Day brunch next week as I plan on making this again for that occasion. Other than not being enough filler in mine (due to wider pie dish), it was absolutely delicious. I used a 9 oz bag of spinach (with hard stems removed) which was also adequate for the 10" pie dish. Martha Stewart Member Rating: 5 stars 05/04/2018 I did it’s perfect love you Sarah👍🏼😍 Martha Stewart Member Rating: 5 stars 01/04/2016 This is a delicious quiche. I added a 1/2 cup of cooked ham. If you have any leftovers, it's great for lunches. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 05/14/2014 I made this quiche for Easter and it was FANTASTIC! Everyone loved it. I followed the recipe exactly but only made one, so I divided the ingredients by half. The gruyere cheese is not over powering. To answer some of the prior questions, I used a 10 ounce bag of spinach leaves for one quiche and broke off the harder stems. I used a pre-made pie crust that I rolled out into pie plate. I did not pre cook the crust. I used a crust shield for entire cook time. I will be making this often. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 10/19/2013 Can this recipe be made crustless in ramekins or muffin tins? Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 12/03/2012 I might not be the best person to address the 'issue' of the cheese since I am Swiss born and raised and am used to some really strong cheeses but I didn't think the Gruyère is too strong! I absolutely loved this recipe and will make it again! Maybe modify some of the ingredients. The suggested bacon addition sounds delicious... :) Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 12/10/2011 always a winner... of course i add bacon to the top. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/26/2011 I made this for a bridal shower and it was a hit! It disappeared so quickly it was gone by the time I got in line for food. Bummer! I'll have to make it again just for my family to try it out.Martha Stewart Member
