Ingredients
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan
2 cups half-and-half
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Pinch cayenne
2 large eggs plus 2 large egg yolks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups packed baby spinach, plus more for serving (optional)
3/4 cup chopped cooked bacon
1/2 cup grated mozzarella
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a 9-inch pie pan with the butter and sprinkle the grated Parmesan evenly on top. Put the pan on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Whisk the half-and-half, flour, cayenne, eggs, egg yolks, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a large bowl. Spread the spinach and bacon out in the prepared pie pan. Pour the egg mixture over top and sprinkle with the cheese and chives.
- Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool and then slice into wedges. Serve with more baby spinach if using.
