Equipment

9-inch pie dish
Skillet
Mixing bowl
Whisk
Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil (15 ml)
2 cups broccoli florets, chopped (about 180g)
1 cup diced ham (150g)
½ medium onion, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup/75g)
6 large eggs
1 cup heavy cream (240 ml)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (113g)
½ teaspoon garlic powder (1.5g)
¼ teaspoon nutmeg (0.5g)
Salt and pepper to taste
Non-stick cooking spray for greasing

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9-inch pie dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are tender yet crisp.
Spread the sautéed broccoli and onions evenly in the bottom of the greased pie dish.
Sprinkle the diced ham over the broccoli.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese into the egg mixture.
Pour the egg mixture over the broccoli and ham in the pie dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove from oven and let the quiche rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

To store, cover the quiche with foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

For a dairy-free option, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and omit the cheese.

Customize this quiche by adding other keto-friendly vegetables like spinach or mushrooms.
