Instructions:
Prepare the Crust:
In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and cold water. Gradually add this mixture to the flour-butter mixture, stirring until the dough comes together.
Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Filling:
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until softened.
Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Assemble the Quiche:
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a pie dish. Press the dough into the dish and trim any excess.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
Spread the spinach mixture over the crust, then sprinkle with shredded cheese. Pour the egg mixture over the top.
Bake the Quiche:
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
Serve:
Allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
This Spinach Quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, or a light dinner. Feel free to customize it with your favorite ingredients and spices. Bon appétit!
