Easy Gourmet Quiche
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup Glenisk Natural yogurt
- 1 tablespoon unbleached flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 280g crab meat (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 3 scallions (white and green parts) chopped finely
- Unbaked 24-cm (9-inch) pastry shell
- 1 cup grated Swiss cheese
- 60 g sliced or slivered almonds (toasted)
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to gas mark 6, 200°C, 450°F. In a blender or food processor, mix the eggs and yogurt thoroughly. Add the flour, baking soda, salt and pepper. Blend again. Pour the mixture into a large bowl. If using canned crab meat, make sure it is well-drained. Stir the seafood into the egg mixture. Add the scallions and stir well.
Layer the bottom of the pastry shell with the grated cheese. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese then sprinkle the toasted almonds on top.
- Bake for 15 minutes then reduce the heat to gas mark 31/2, 175°C, 350°F and bake for 30 minutes longer, until the quiche is firm to the touch. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
