A quiche is a great dish whether you are participating in a brunch, a lunch, or are having a group of friends over. It can be prepared in advance and it is easy to make, even though the preparation does take a few hours. Below you will find the recipe for a simple veggie quiche. Of course, you can vary the vegetables you add – let me know in the comments below or on Instagram and Twitter how yours turned out!

Ingredients Dough
- 250 g flour (wheat, type 450 is fine)
- 100 g ice-cold butter
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons ice water
Making the Dough
- Mix the flour with the ice-cold butter, the egg, and the salt. Slowly add the ice-water and mix until you have a ball of dough.
- Tip: I actually cut the butter into small chunks and freeze it for a few hours – it really improves the dough.
- Let the dough rest in the fridge for about an hour.

Ingredients Quiche
- 400 g carrots
- 1 zucchini
- 1 broccoli
- 200 g mushrooms
- salt, pepper, herbs, and spices
Making the Filling
- Peel the carrots and cut them into thin slices. Fry the slices in a pot or pan.
- Wash the broccoli, cut it into small pieces, and steam them.
- Cut the mushrooms and the zucchini into small pieces and fry them.
- Put all the veggies into a big bowl. Season them with salt, pepper, and any other spices you like. Mix thoroughly.
Ingredients Sauce
- 4 eggs
- 200 g cream
- 200 g sour cream
- 100 g crème fraiche
- salt, pepper, herbs, and spices
Making the Sauce
- Mix all ingredients together and whisk thoroughly.
- Add salt, pepper, and any other spices you like. Mix thoroughly.
Making the Quiche
- Preheat the oven to 180° C. Grease a spring-form pan (24-26 cm in diameter).
- Roll out the dough and line the spring-form pan with the dough. Make sure to pull up the dough up to the top of the pan.
- Take a fork and poke holes into the dough.
- Bake the dough in the oven for 10 minutes.
- Take the pan out, let it cool off for a few minutes.
- Add the veggies and spread them evenly in the pan. Carefully pour the sauce on top and make sure to spread it so that all the veggies are covered.
- Put the pan back in the oven and bake the quiche at 180° C for 45-50 minutes. Best eaten warm. Enjoy!
