For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic or a finely chopped shallot to the spinach mixture. If you don't have Swiss cheese, Gruyere or Fontina cheese are excellent substitutes. To prevent the crust from burning, you can cover the edges with foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until warmed through.

01 Step
Recipe View 0 mins Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Prick the pie shell with a fork to prevent it from puffing up during baking.
02 Step
Recipe View 6 mins Bake the pie shell in the preheated oven until lightly golden, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
03 Step

07 Step
Recipe View 55 mins Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
