Bisquick Quiche

Bisquick Quiche
This Bisquick Quiche recipe is a cherished mid-century American classic that simplified the French-inspired dish into an easy, one-bowl wonder. Popularized during the 1960s and 70s, it became a go-to for home cooks seeking a no-crust alternative to traditional quiche. With Bisquick as the base, this quiche magically forms its own crust as it bakes, offering a creamy, custard-like filling dotted with savory mix-ins such as cheddar cheese, ham, green onions, or spinach. Its ease, versatility, and comforting flavor have made it a brunch and family-dinner staple for generations, offering both nostalgia and practicality in every bite.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 ½ cups milk (or half & half)
  • ½ cup Bisquick
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • ½ cup swiss cheese (shredded)
  • ½ cup ham ( or bacon, bacon should be crisp and crumbled)
  • ¼ cup green onions (sliced)
  • ½ cup spinach (chopped, optional)
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preheat Oven

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-inch pie plate with butter.

Step 2: Prepare Filling Ingredients

  • In a mixing bowl, combine shredded cheeses, diced ham or bacon, green onions, and spinach (if using).

Step 3: Blend Custard Base

  • In a blender, combine eggs, milk (or half & half), Bisquick, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.

Step 4: Assemble Quiche

  • Spread the cheese and meat mixture evenly in the prepared pie plate. Pour the blended mixture over the top. Press any floating cheese gently down with a spoon.

Step 5: Bake

  • Bake for 45 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 6: Rest and Serve

  • Let the quiche sit for 10 minutes before slicing. The bacon should be crisp and crumbly. Serve warm.

Tips

  • Substitute bacon for sausage or diced turkey for a lighter version.
  • Add cooked broccoli, mushrooms, or bell peppers for extra vegetables.
  • For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • Make it vegetarian by omitting the meat and doubling the cheese or adding extra greens.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in a low oven.
