The top of the Quiche will be lightly browned and the center should not move. If it does, place back in oven and cook in 5 min intervals.

The best Quiche ever and Ohhh, so easy!

Ham and Cheese Quiche

1 pre-made pie shell (I recommend Marie Callender’s in your grocer’s freezer)

6 eggs

1 ½ cups heavy cream

1 cup diced ham (I purchase this in a bag in the meat section)

¼ cup diced onion

1 cup freshly shredded cheddar cheese

salt/pepper

Preheat oven to 375

“Pam” a small pan and sauté onions with ham for appx 5 mins. Pour sauted ham and onions and shredded cheese into premade pie shell. Beat eggs with heavy cream until well blended, add salt and pepper. Pour over top. Bake 35-45 mins until set. (When you take the quiche out of the oven, the middle of the pie should not jiggle)

Walk with the King!

  1. This sounds great and easy. Im thinking tomoro night's tea :O)
    Sounds like a good emergency recipe for us, as we always have bacon bits in the freezer, eggs in the fridge and uht cream in the cupboard. Im hoping it will work with premade puff pastry sheets.
    Thankyou

  2. A Note for any of your gluten free readers, you can make this recipe the exact same way, just omit the crust. We had quiche for dinner earlier this week and this is almost exactly what we made. Great recipe!

    1. Gluten free readers can, also, get frozen gluten free pie crusts at health food markets like Whole Foods.

  3. Thanks Ladies- A special shot out to Kasey, keep those gluten-free comments coming please!!! I have a sweet friend who has to go by a gluten free diet…I will make a quiche that way for her now that you just mentioned it! awesome! Thanks!

  4. That looks sssooo good! We love quiches!
    By the way I have posted you to my 'Bible Study Links' page on my blog.
    I have become very encouraged by you.
    What you are is a VESSEL, for the King.

  5. A wonderful recipe, one of my favourites also…A great visual impact is also beat 2 eggs and crack the other 4 whole into the pie itself…a surprise to each slice..Delicious!Yvette

  6. I am going to have to try this one. I'm not usually one to grab recipes from blogs, but I love quiche and this looks super easy!

  7. We had this for dinner and it was delicious!! One question though… how do you keep the quiche from overflowing in the oven? Do you not always have to use all of the egg/cream mixture? Mine made quite the mess on the cookie sheet! 😛

  8. This looks sooo delicious! I may make this soon! Thanks for stopping by What's Cooking Wednesday! Hope to see you next week!

  9. Sarah, It seems to depend on the pre-made crust depth..some crusts -the mixture is perfect, others you may want to leave out about 1/4 cup of the mixture or you will end up with too much. Thank you so much for your update-I am so glad you enjoyed it!

  10. mmm thanks Courtney, we munched out on this for tea :O) , but next time i will remember to put the cream in haha, I posted a link 2 ur blog and a pic of my effort on my blog.

  11. Awesome! I will try it!

    Courtney, thanks so much for your kind comment on my blog and for stopping by.

  12. I made this on Monday morning, it was delicious. My mother had stayed with us for a long weekend and loved it also. Thanks for a great recipe!!!

  13. I made this tonight and it was fantastic! Like someone else mentioned the depth of the crust makes a differance. I just bought a regular crust and had to throw out about 1 cup of the egg mixture. You really need a deep dish pie crust for this – but it really was a great meal!

  14. Jacki & Quest- thank you for the update! So happy you got to enjoy in this delicious recipe 🙂 Blessings to you!

  15. Janelle…your site is such a blessing to me. I needed something quick, easy, and delicious for our women’s ministry brunch tomorrow a.m. and this sounds perfect! I have a quick question….do you add the ingredients into a frozen or thawed pie shell? Thank you so much for all you do and for your help. May God bless you as richly as you bless others!

  16. Oh my please forgive me Courtney…I have bounced between your two wonderful sites so much today searching recipes I lost track of where I was….so sorry about that, how embarrassing.

  17. This recipe looks like a great thing! I am not a fan of eggs, but it has given me another option for meals to take to someone who is sick, or has a new baby, etc. I am looking forward to poking around your site. It looks as though you have some really good things besides recipes on here. I am especially interested in the free e book. I am in a group with my daughter, and several other girls and their moms. We are attempting to teach them to be godly managers (keepers) of their homes. I think a study on how to be like the Proverbs 31 woman would be very good. We were just doing a short devotion each month, but we recently decided we wanted to do a deeper study with them as they are all getting to their teen years. I hope the ebook will be something we could use as a guide…

  18. mmmm mmmm mmmm – Can’t wait to try this, I haven’t eaten anything this morning and I’m salivating!!!! Thanks for sharing!

  19. Thanks for this great recipe. I made this for dinner tonight with my kids tonight. I’m on bed rest and can’t be up for very long at any one time. We were able to get it in the oven in about 15 min. We did broccoli instead of onions and used fat free half and half. My husband did the grocery shopping so we had 2 regular pie crusts instead of deep dish. We split the recipe and had 2 “pies,” which worked out since they are gone. Thanks again. The kids (7, 5, 2) loved helping and eating this tasty meal.

  20. Made this for my family after church today. My youngest, a self-proclaimed egg hater, chowed down on this “ham and cheese” pie. I was forced to use half and half as our local grocery was out of heavy cream (after Valentine’s Day, seriously?!?!?! LOL). Very good. Looking forward to leftovers tomorrow! 🙂

  21. I would like to start making these ahead of time and baking them each morning for breakfast. Do you know if the could be baked and then frozen (or) frozen and then baked?

  22. I came across your recipe looking to use up the leftover ham and heavy cream from Thanksgiving dinner. The quiche turned out wonderful and I didn’t get the jiggle in the middle I usually get from other quiche recipes. I will definitely be making this again. Thank you for the recipe. 🙂

  23. I can’t wait to taste the quiche that I’m making from this recipe. One thing…using the exact amounts listed was too much filling for a regular 9″frozen pie crust. I would have overflowed! I used 2 recipes of the egg mixture to fill 3 crusts and it was a perfect fit! (Used the amount of ham and cheese listed)

  24. Made this today for Father’s day, it was a hit! everyone loved it! will definitely make again 🙂 thanks for the great recipe.

  25. Just made a double batch and had enough liquid left for another one although I used a deep crust. Tasted really great though. I added some broccoli (about one cup) to one of them and a little paprika spice to the egg mixture.

  27. We celebrated the very first dozen chicken eggs on our little farm mountain top and we used this recipe. It was wonderful and will hold many memories for us. This one will be printed out and passed down. Thank you for sharing this with us:) Jenni

  28. A printable recipe would be a huge help.the Quiche recipe looked good but it wouldn’t print so that it could be read. Disappointing to say the least.

  29. Great recipe. I made it last night but I used half & half and deli ham that I chopped up. I also used a deep pie shell. All the ingredients fit perfect. I set it on a cookie sheet in the oven.

  30. I made the ham and cheese quiche with whipping cream for Christmas morning ’15. It was the best one I have ever made. I added 2 T of butter to saute the ham and onions. I used a spiral sliced honey glazed ham cut very small. Incredibly good. I used 2/3 c cheddar cheese and 1/3 c baby swiss cheese instead of the 1 c. Of cheddar. I cooked it 55 min. And covered with foil when it got golden brown. I turned off the oven and let it sit 10 min.I cooked the pie shell for 15 min.and let it cool Before putting in the cheese . I cooled the ham and onion mixture over ice in a tray before adding it.

  31. I stumbled upon your recipe a couple of years ago when looking to make a quiche for Mother’s Day….been following your recipe for every Mother’s Day, brunch, get together, potluck since then…. made it for Christmas Eve brunch ’15 and making it again today to start off the New Year!

    Many thanks and God bless you with a healthy, happy, joyous and prosperous new year.

  32. Thank you so much for this extremely easy quiche! I make it, honestly, once a month. I make it for company and just because! It’s always heavenly!
    Thank you again,
    Marcella

  33. Made this last night. I had too much filling for my pie crust, so I added diced jalapeños to the mixture and put extra filling in a greased pyrex dish and baked it along side the quiche. They were both delicious! Thank you for the recipe!!!!

  34. We’ll have quiches few times a year and this is far the best quiche EVER! This is absolutely a keeper!
    Thanks so much.
    cynthia

  35. I made this 2 times. The second time I added the onions and a big shallot diced and I also added some gruyere cheese. The best I ever made. Yummy ????

  36. I have made this recipe several times, my family loves it! Very easy and quick. The best I have tried. It is now a favourite at our house. ~ Blessings to you!

  37. I have been making this quiche forever, thank you so much for the recipe. Over the last few years I have opted out of using a pie crust and just lined the bottom with hash browns, tastes just as good! You can’t go wrong with ham and cheese no matter what! Thanks again!
