Bacon Broccoli Quiche is a delicious combination of bacon, tender broccoli, and the savory richness of cheddar cheese encased in a buttery, flaky pie crust. Ready in a mere under an hour, it has become a cherished choice for family brunches or quick weeknight dinners.
Preheat oven to 375F. Place pie crust on a baking sheet and prick all over with a fork. Blind bake for 10 minutes. Or following package instructions.
Meanwhile, make bacon and broccoli filling. Preheat a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add bacon and cook, stirring frequently until starting to crisp, about 4 minutes.
Add broccoli and cook, stirring frequently until almost tender and bright green, another 4-5 minutes.
Spread broccoli and bacon mixture evenly in the bottom of the crust and sprinkle cheese evenly over top.
In a large bowl, whisk together the cream, milk, eggs with remaining salt and pepper. Pour over the broccoli and cheese.
Bake for 35-40 minutes in a 375F oven until quiche is golden brown and still slightly jiggly.
Freezing instructions:
After baking, allow to cool completely before wrapping in aluminum foil and freezing. The quiche will last for three months in the freezer. When ready to bake, unwrap and bake in a 375F oven for about 50-60 minutes.
Notes
Each frozen pie crust will be slightly different, use your judgment when filling the crust, if it seems like there is too much filling, omit some and use for something else like mini frittatas or an omelet.

This recipe can be easily doubled to make two quiches.
