This crustless spinach quiche is a delicious and healthy gluten-free and dairy-free option perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a light dinner. Packed with fresh spinach, sautéed onions, and a flavorful blend of eggs and almond milk, it offers a savory and satisfying dish that is easy to make and bake in a cast iron skillet.

Ingredients

Vegetables and Seasonings

  • 2 yellow onions, diced
  • 6 cups roughly chopped fresh spinach (or 3 cups frozen spinach)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried red chili flakes, for sprinkling (optional)

Liquids and Oils

  • 2 tablespoons sunflower oil
  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk

Eggs

  • 4 large eggs, beaten

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and adjust the rack to the middle position to ensure even baking.
  2. Sauté Onions: Heat 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil in a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced onions and sauté for about 5 minutes until they become translucent, developing a sweet aroma.
  3. Add Spinach and Seasonings: Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes until it wilts. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon granulated garlic, and 1 teaspoon dried parsley, stirring well to combine. If using frozen spinach, skip sautéing and add it directly in the next step.
  4. Mix Eggs and Almond Milk: In a medium bowl, whisk together the 4 beaten eggs and 1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
  5. Combine and Distribute Mixture: Pour the egg and milk mixture into the skillet over the sautéed spinach and onions. Stir gently to distribute the ingredients evenly throughout the skillet.
  6. Bake the Quiche: Place the skillet in the preheated oven on the middle rack. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the quiche is firm and set in the center.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from oven and sprinkle with dried red chili flakes if desired for a touch of heat. Slice and serve warm.

Notes

  • Using a cast iron skillet is recommended for even heat distribution during baking.
  • If opting for frozen spinach, ensure it is thawed and well-drained before adding directly.
  • This quiche is naturally gluten-free and dairy-free, making it suitable for those with related dietary restrictions.
  • Feel free to customize with additional herbs or spices based on preference.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated; the quiche also freezes well for future meals.
