Description

This Crustless Quiche is a healthy and delicious breakfast or brunch option. It’s packed with fresh tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella cheese, and it’s easy to make without a crust.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes (or cherry tomatoes), halved
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 large eggs (preferably at room temperature)
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk or cream)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese (1-inch balls or cut into 1-inch pieces)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine halved tomatoes, basil, garlic, and 4 ounces of the mozzarella cheese. Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch pie pan or 8-inch square baking dish.
  3. Whisk Eggs: In the same bowl (or a new one), whisk together eggs, almond milk (or milk/cream), salt, and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the tomato mixture in the baking dish.
  4. Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is starting to set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  5. Add Remaining Cheese: Remove from the oven and dot the remaining 2 ounces of mozzarella cheese on top. Bake for another 15 minutes, or until golden brown and completely set.
  6. Serve: If there’s any excess liquid, drain it before serving. Garnish with fresh basil and enjoy!

Notes

    • Add cooked bacon, sausage, or ham for a heartier quiche.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve with a side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
