Crustless Broccoli Quiche Recipe

This easy crustless broccoli quiche is perfect for breakfast casserole, light lunch or dinner that takes very little prep time.

Plus, it’s so versatile – you can mix and match any vegetables in this recipe to create your ideal crustless quiche. 

It’s important to ensure that the quiche dish is really well greased to ensure easy removal. (And clean up!) 

Dish out of the oven

The simple ingredients of broccoli and leek work so well together that I don’t feel it needs any onion, red onions garlic or garlic powder.

The volume of eggs and cream will depend on the size of your vegetables and how eggy or veggy heavy you want your finished quiche to be. 

You can also feel free to swap some of the cream for other options with healthy fats such as sour cream, keto friendly yogurt or a dairy free alternative, if you like.

Cheese options

Likewise with the cheese, you can swap or add in other cheese options such as feta cheese, parmesan cheese or gruyere cheese in the cheese quiche.

Other options include adding in any leftover chicken or meat, bacon or spicy sausage for a meaty quiche, heaps of spinach for a spinach quiche or another great way to enjoy the easy recipe is to ladle broccoli mixture into individual serving dishes, ramekins or a well greased muffin tin for crustless mini quiche.

This dish has a lot of flavor and makes a good option to meal prep, since you can prepare the crustless broccoli-cheddar quiche ahead of time and enjoy by the slice for a speedy meal.
