This Cheese Quiche recipe with Swiss cheese or Quiche au Fromage de Gruyere is very simple to make and absolutely delicious!
Pastry Shell | |
6 ounces white flour | |
4 tablespoons water | |
4 ounces butter | |
1 tablespoon sugar | |
0.5 teaspoon salt | |
Stuffing | |
a little bit water | |
3 egg(s) | |
2 ounces cream | |
pinch pepper | |
pinch nutmeg | |
1 ounce butter | |
0.5 teaspoon salt | |
4 ounces Swiss cheese | |
a bit of spring onion(s) |
This Cheese Quiche uses Swiss Cheese to make the famous Quiche au Fromage de Gruyere in French β one of the recipes that Iβve made in the French quiches series. It is very simple and is just perfect if you are a cheese fan.
The instructions are similar to the Cream and Bacon Quiche recipe, but this time I stirred around 4 ounces of grated Swiss cheese into the egg and cream mixture. I also added a little bit of milk.
A quiche is a French tart or pie that is straight sided and open faced.
Quiches are usually a mixture of cream and bacon, cheese and milk, tomatoes and onions, shrimp, crabs or anything else combined with eggs, poured into a pastry shell and baked in an oven until they puff and brown.
But we are focusing on cheese this time. π
Absolutely. Instead of Swiss cheese, you can use cheddar, mozzarella or your favorite cheese really. This quiche is amazing either way.

3. Prepare Pastry Shell3 min Take the dough out of the fridge. Shape it into a shell. |
4. Bake Pastry Shell5-7 min Preheat your oven to 375 Β°F (190 Β°C). Bake the pastry shell to a half-ready state for around 5-7 minutes (depends on the oven). |
5. Make Mixture3 min Also, beat the eggs, cream, milk and grated Swiss cheese and season in a mixing bowl until everything is blended. Pour the mixture into the pastry shell and distribute the butter pieces on top. |
6. Bake25-30 min Place the quiche onto a top part of the preheated oven and bake it for 25 to 30 minutes. The quiche will become puffed and browned. |
