Stitt House Breakfast Quiche

Stitt House Breakfast Quiche recipe image
This Stitt House Breakfast Quiche is a comforting, rustic take on the classic French tart, designed specifically for a satisfying morning meal. The custard base is rich and silky, infused with the savory depth of sauted onions and the smoky flavor of bacon or ham. A unique twist is the inclusion of cubed, sauted English muffins, which add a delightful textural contrast and help absorb the egg mixture without becoming soggy. Topped with plenty of grated cheese and garnished with fresh herbs, this dish is perfect for weekend brunches, holiday mornings, or a quick yet elegant weeknight breakfast. It serves beautifully directly from the ramekin or plated with a side of fresh salsa for a zesty kick.
