Description
One of my all time favorites! My mother got this recipe from her friend Betty, It’s a make ahead recipe, to be frozen and used later. My mother used to make mass quantities and take them out whenever she needed for an easy meal or hors d’oeuvre. She also made it with the light cream instead of milk.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups shredded Swiss cheese
- 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cooked ham, diced
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground dry mustard
- 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
- 2 tablespoons chopped pimento peppers, garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)
- Toss shredded cheese and flour together in a medium bowl. Sprinkle mixture onto frozen pie crust. Add diced ham on top of cheese.
- Combine eggs
- milk
- salt
- and dry mustard in a medium bowl. Beat until smooth and pour over cheese and ham.
- Place foil around the edges of the crust to protect it from burning.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown
- about 1 hour. A knife inserted into the center of the quiche should come out clean.
