Equipment

  • Convection oven

Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1 cup Bob's Red Mill Paleo Baking Flour or a mix of almond, coconut, and arrowroot flours
  • 1/4 cup Bob's Red Mill Paleo Baking Flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

For the filling:

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice dairy, evaporated, or unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 1/2 onion sautéed
  • 300 g ground beef and pork
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 pinch nutmeg optional

Instructions

Prepare the crust:

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
  • In a bowl, combine all the crust ingredients until you form a compact dough.
  • Shape the dough into a ball and roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Line a quiche pan with the dough and pre-bake for 10 minutes.

Make the filling:

  • In a pan, sauté the onion until soft. Optionally add some leek for extra flavor.
  • Add the ground meat and cook until browned. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix with the milk. Stir in the meat and onion mixture.

Assemble the quiche:

  • Pour the filling into the pre-baked crust.
  • Bake at 180°C (355°F) for 15–20 minutes, until the quiche is set and golden.
  • Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Vegetarian version: Replace the meat with spinach, mushrooms, or roasted vegetables.
  • Dairy-free option: Use almond or oat milk instead of cream or dairy milk.
  • Protein boost: Add smoked salmon, chicken, or shrimp for a different flavor profile.
  • Make ahead: Quiche tastes even better the next day, so it is perfect for meal prep.
