Crustless Quiche

For those who want to lighten their meals or just save time on preparation. This crustless quiche is a great alternative. This version retains the creamy texture and essence of the original. At the same time, it is prepared more quickly and the carbohydrate content is reduced. If you want a quiche with a crust, you might like the Spinach and Ricotta Quiche or the Chicken Quiche, which are very popular on my site.

I created this crustless quiche recipe with leftover Easter ham in mind. Because it’s low in carbs and doesn’t require a peel. I then added a little light cream to give the eggs a more creamy custard texture. This is because most quiches have a softer, fluffier baked egg texture than a frittata.

Crustless Quiche Format:

• Swap the ham For bacon, sausage or vegan sausage
• cheese: Any type of cheese works well here. Try mozzarella, Gruyere, cheddar, or Swiss cheese.
• milk: You can substitute extra milk for half and half cream. But the texture will not be creamy but will have a softer texture.
• Personal Ramekins: Make it into individual cups. Instead of one large pie pan
• shell: If you want to use the shell Follow the instructions for this recipe using a deeper pie plate. And use less broccoli.
