Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pie crust - homemade or store-bought
  • 6 Eggs
  • cups Whipping cream or heavy cream
  • cups Swiss cheese, shredded
  • cups Baby spinach, packed
  • 6-8 Chive blossoms
  • ¼ cup Fresh chives, chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Ground pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare 9-inch pie plate by spraying with oil or wiping with butter or oil.
  • Remove pie crust from the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature (either homemade or store bought). Usually 20 minutes. Roll the dough out to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Place in prepared pie plate, mold and crimp the edges.
  • Preheat oven to 375℉
  • Layer the cheese, spinach, and chive blossoms.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Then add cream, minced garlic, chopped chives, salt and pepper and whisk together.
  • Pour egg mixture over the spinach, cheese and blossoms, distributing evenly.
  • Cover pie crust edges with a pie edge cover or use aluminum foil to cover the edges. Bake for 45-50 minutes, removing edge cover during last 15 minutes of cooking. Knife inserted in the center should come out clean and quiche should be a golden brown.
  • Cool for approximately 20-30 minutes to allow quiche to set before slicing.
  • Serve and Enjoy!
