🧈 Ingredients

For the Crust (or use store-bought):

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup (1 stick) cold butter, cubed
• 3–4 tablespoons cold water

For the Filling:

• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup milk (whole milk or half-and-half for extra richness)
• ½ cup heavy cream
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
• ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

🔪 How to Make It

1. Prepare the crust:
   • Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
   • Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, just until dough comes together.
   • Roll out dough and fit into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim edges and pre-bake at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes.
2. Make the filling:
   • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
   • Stir in all three cheeses until evenly combined.
3. Assemble the quiche:
   • Pour the filling into the pre-baked crust.
   • Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top is golden.
   • Let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

💡 Tips for a Perfect Quiche

• Don’t overbake — a little jiggle in the center means it’ll be silky and creamy.
• Add-ins like spinach, ham, mushrooms, or caramelized onions make great variations.
• Want extra flavor? Sprinkle a little nutmeg or fresh herbs into the filling.
• Make it ahead and reheat gently — it’s even better the next day!
