Impossible Ham Quiche

Impossible Ham Quiche recipe image
This "Impossible" quiche skips the traditional pastry crust, creating a tender, custard-like base that holds up beautifully to hearty fillings. The combination of saut&# 195;©ed mushrooms, savory ham, and melted Monterey Jack and Parmesan cheeses results in a rich, comforting dish with every bite. ItâÂÂs an excellent choice for weeknight dinners when you want something substantial yet simple. The sour cream adds a lovely tanginess that balances the richness, while the hot sauce provides a subtle kick. Serve it warm from the oven, perhaps with a simple green salad on the side. ItâÂÂs a crowd-pleaser that feels indulgent but comes together with ease.

Note

Storage: Cover leftover quiche tightly with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days. Reheat slices in the microwave or oven until warmed through.

Variations: You can substitute the ham with bacon, turkey, or additional vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for a vegetarian version.

Cheese: If Monterey Jack is unavailable, cheddar or mozzarella work well as substitutes.

Texture Tip: The flour helps thicken the custard so it holds its shape when sliced. Do not omit it.
