Servings: 10 slices
Calories: 150kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup cheese, shredded/grated
- ½ onion, finely chopped
- 4 slices bacon (or ham), diced
- ⅔ cup gluten-free all-purpose/plain flour
- 1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
- 5 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup corn kernels,
- 8 cherry tomatoes, sliced or halved
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease your baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.
- Add gluten-free flour and baking powder. Use an electric mixer to combine - this helps eliminate any lumps, but you can also whisk by hand.
- Stir in cheese, onion, bacon or ham and corn, salt and pepper.
- Pour mixture into the prepared dish and smooth out the top, placing sliced or halved cherry tomatoes gently on top.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden and centre is set.
- Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or chilled.
Notes
Substitutions and Variations
This quiche is really forgiving and can be adapted to suit what you’ve got on hand:- Make it richer: Swap some or all of the milk for cream if you have some to use up - makes it more indulgent and creamy.
- Vegetables that need using up: Add in things like grated zucchini (squeeze out the moisture), chopped spinach, mushrooms, broccoli, capsicum or leftover roast veg. Just keep the overall volume similar so it cooks through evenly.
- No bacon or ham? Leave it out or replace with a vegetarian alternative like cooked veggies or cheese and herbs.
- Dairy-free? Use your favourite plant-based milk and cheese alternative.
- Flavour boosts: Add a teaspoon of mustard, a sprinkle of dried herbs, or chopped fresh parsley for a twist.
