Ham and Gruyère Breakfast Quiche
Ham and Gruyère Breakfast Quiche — savory, cheesy, and perfect for a festive morning.
Ingredients:
- 1 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade), chilled

- 1 1/2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk (or 1 cup milk + 1/2 cup half-and-half for richer custard)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional, for warmth)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or green onions (optional, for brightness)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional, for a subtle tang)
- Butter or cooking spray (to grease the pie dish if using homemade crust)
How to Make:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Fit the chilled pie crust into a 9-inch quiche or pie dish; trim and crimp the edges. If using a homemade crust, lightly grease the dish first.
- If you like a crisper bottom, blind-bake the crust: line with parchment and fill with pie weights or dried beans, bake 10 minutes, remove weights and parchment, then bake 5 more minutes until just set. Otherwise, you can use the crust as-is.
- Scatter the diced ham evenly across the bottom of the prepared crust.
- Sprinkle the shredded Gruyère over the ham in an even layer.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (and/or half-and-half), salt, pepper, nutmeg (if using), and Dijon mustard until smooth.
- Stir in the chopped chives or green onions, reserving a few for garnish if desired.
- Pour the egg mixture slowly into the crust over the ham and cheese, allowing it to settle and fill evenly.
- Place the quiche on a baking sheet and bake for 35–45 minutes, until the center is set and the top is golden; a knife inserted near the center should come out mostly clean with a slight custardy cling.
- Let the quiche rest on a wire rack for 10–15 minutes before slicing to finish setting.
- Garnish with the reserved chives or a light sprinkle of extra Gruyère, slice, and serve warm.
