Ingredients

  • 1 pie crust your own or store bought
  • 1/2 cups shallots chopped
  • 1/2 pound smoked ham chopped
  • 1 cup Arla Dofino Smoked Gouda Cheese shredded
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups Half & Half
  • 2 teaspoons chives
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees, and line a 9 inch deep dish pie plate with a pie crust.
  • Lay chopped shallots in the crust. Top with the chopped ham. Sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  • Whisk together eggs and Half & Half, whisk in the salt, sugar and chives. Pour over the top of the cheese.
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven to 300 degrees and bake for 30 minutes more.
  • Let sit for 5 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Whether to prebake or not is up to you. If you want a crisper flaky crust, then blind baking the pie crust is a good idea. 
Store the quiche in an airtight container or wrap it in aluminum foil or plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for 3-4 days or the freezer for 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the oven.
