Description

This Impossible Ham Quiche is a delightful twist on the traditional French tart, offering all the rich, savory flavors without the need for a pastry crust. The base is a tender blend of flour and butter that sets up perfectly during baking, providing a satisfying texture that holds the creamy custard together. Packed with diced cooked ham, earthy sauted mushrooms, and a luxurious mix of Monterey Jack and Parmesan cheeses, every bite is a balance of salty, cheesy, and savory notes. A hint of hot sauce adds a subtle kick that brightens the richness of the eggs and sour cream. Its an excellent choice for brunch, a light dinner, or even a make-ahead lunch. Simple to prepare with pantry staples, this dish is both comforting and elegant, making it a family favorite for casual weeknights or when you want to impress guests with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F (175C). Grease a 10-inch quiche dish or pie plate with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a medium skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and saut until they are lightly browned and have released their moisture.
  3. Drain the mushrooms well to remove excess liquid, then set them aside to cool slightly.
  4. In a blender or large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, sour cream, remaining melted butter, all-purpose flour, onion powder, hot sauce, and grated Parmesan cheese. Blend or whisk until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
  5. Stir the cooked mushrooms, chopped ham, and shredded Monterey Jack cheese into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared greased quiche dish, spreading it evenly.
  7. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center, puffed, and golden brown on top.
  8. Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
