Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Crustless Quiche
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish with extra-virgin olive oil.
  2. Heat a tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the diced shallots for 2-3 minutes until translucent, then add minced garlic and spinach, cooking until wilted.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, kosher salt, and ground black pepper until frothy. Mix in the grated Gruyère cheese.
  4. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed spinach and shallots in the pie dish and stir gently to combine.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
  6. Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
