01 Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the chopped broccoli, minced onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and the onions are translucent and beginning to caramelize. (10-12 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
Spoon the sautéed vegetables evenly into the unbaked pie crust. Sprinkle generously with the shredded mozzarella cheese. Place the quiche on a baking sheet to prevent spills and ensure even baking. (3 minutes)
04 Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (2 minutes)
05 Step

Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of melted butter into the egg mixture. Gently pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cheese in the pie crust, ensuring even distribution. (2 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven until the center of the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown. This typically takes about 40 to 50 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a knife into the center; it should come out clean. (40-50 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Let the quiche cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the custard to set completely.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the egg mixture.
If the crust begins to brown too quickly, tent the quiche loosely with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Feel free to experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, cheddar, or parmesan would all be delicious substitutes for mozzarella.
To make this quiche ahead of time, bake it completely and then refrigerate. Reheat gently in a 350°F oven until warmed through.
