How to Make Asparagus Quiche

This asparagus quiche is as delicious as it is gorgeous! It has a perfectly flaky texture and insanely delicious flavor. This will be the star of the show at any breakfast or brunch! 

1. Prep Pie Crust: Preheat the oven to 375℉, then make your homemade pie crust or line a pie dish with a store-bought pie crust.
2. Cook Asparagus: In a large skillet, add 3 tablespoons of water and the cut asparagus. Cover and cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, until bright green and crisp-tender. Drain the water and cool for a few minutes before placing it in the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
3. Add Cheese: Once cooled, place it in the bottom of the prepared pie crust, then top with 1 cup of shredded gruyère.
4. Make Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
5. Bake: Pour the egg mixture into the pie crust and top with the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheese. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the center is set. If the crust edges begin to brown, use a pie shield or aluminum foil wrapped around the edge. Let the finished quiche sit for 15 minutes before slicing.
