Total Time: 85 Minutes, Servings: 6 Servings

Ingredients :

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
• 1/2 cup chopped shallots, from about 2 shallots
• 10 oz broccoli florets, cut into 1-inch pieces or smaller
• 1 teaspoon salt, divided
• 6 large eggs
• 1-3/4 cups heavy cream
• Pinch ground nutmeg
• 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1-1/2 cups (about 5 oz) shredded Gruyère

Instructions :

• Preheat the oven to 325°F degrees and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-inch deep dish pie plate with butter.
• Melt the butter in a large sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Do not brown. Add the broccoli, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/3 cup water. Increase the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is al dente and the water has evaporated, 3-4 minutes more. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the cream, nutmeg, remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper.
• Spread the broccoli and shallots evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie plate. Sprinkle the Gruyère over top. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese.
• Bake for about an hour, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then slice into wedges and serve.
• Make Ahead: This quiche can be made a day ahead of time and refrigerated. To warm up individual slices, simply reheat in the microwave for about a minute. To reheat the entire quiche, cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated 325°F oven until hot in the center, about 30 minutes.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooled quiche may also be wrapped tightly in foil and frozen for up to 3 months. Remove the quiche from the freezer about 24 hours prior to eating and reheat it, covered with foil, in a 300-degree oven until hot in the center.
