Knife
Medium bowl
Whisk
Pie guard
Ingredients
1premade puff pastry sheetwe really like the refrigerated ones vs frozen, but either should work nicely or you can use your favorite recipe.
⅔cupof finely chopped raw broccoli
1.5cupsof small chopped ham pieces
Salt and pepper to preference
1.5cupsof a mix of your favorite Swiss cheeseswe used Comte and Gruyere cheese
9large eggs
⅔cupbuttermilk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Line the bottom of your pie plate with parchment paper.
Gently lay and press the pastry dough into the pie plate being sure it goes all the way up tocover the sides, if needed you can remove some of the excess dough from one place and add it to another spot that needs more.
Each time I’ve made this we've needed to rearrange the dough a little and all I do is press it into place a little bit, it doesn't have to be perfect.
Add in the chopped ham, broccoli, cheese salt and pepper. Whisk the eggs and buttermilk together until smooth.
Pour the egg mixture into the dish in a circular motion so it will fill in around the ingredients right away, be sure not to overfill your dish, leave about ½ an inch at the top of unfilled crust space.
Cover the edges with a guard so they won't burn. Bake for about 25 minutes when the top of the quiche is golden brown.
Then cover with tinfoil for the remaining 20ish minutes.
Bake for about 45 minutes total and then allow to cool for about 15 to 20 minutes before cutting and serving
