Recipe: Crustless Cheeseburger Quiche

Quiche is a great summer meal. It’s tasty hot or cold, freezes like a dream and can be eaten any meal of the day, to include breakfast! It’s easy to whip up for a crowd, classy and perfect with just a hunk of bread and a lovely salad on the side.

This particular recipe is a twist on the classic cheeseburger we all know and love. Using flour in the mixture helps the quiche to stand on it’s own without any crust-which is great for those of us either watching our weight or terrified of making our own crust at home.

Cheeseburger Quiche without crust

Crustless Cheeseburger Quiche

4 Eggs
1 C Milk
1/2 C Cream, 1/2 &1/2, Sour Cream or Evaporated Milk
1/2 C Flour
3/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 C browned Hamburger
1 C Cheddar Cheese
Dash or two of Nutmeg
Grind of Pepper

Mix eggs, milk and cream until thoroughly combined.
In a separate bowl mix flour, baking powder and salt.
Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
Stir in cheese, burger, nutmeg and pepper.
Pour into a greased casserole dish or pie plate.
Bake at 350 for 50-60 min, until browned and center is fully set.

Variations:

Use 1/2 C self rising flour in place of the flour, baking powder and salt

Change up the fillings-you can remove the burger and cheese and use up to 3 cups of any mix of fillings.  Just be careful of stuff that is “wet” like frozen and thawed veggies-they can make it watery.

    We call this “cheeseburger pie” at my house, and I really only like to make it during the summer, when fresh tomatoes are ripe — because the *best* variation is to put fresh tomato slices on top for about the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking.

    Ohhh. . . the tomato slices sound heavenly. I have a recipe for Tomato pie that is basically a pie crust filled with tomato slices, sprinkled with thyme and a few other herbs and then a bit of quiche like filling poured over to fill in the cracks. . . mmmm. . .
