Why We Love This Keto Crustless Quiche Recipe
When was the last time you made a quiche? Was it soft and pillowy, or crispy around the edges and dry in the center? Quiche is a simple sort of recipe to prepare. Yet it’s also a dish people tend to over cook. We’re so concerned with the possibility of raw eggs in the center, that we leave it in the oven far too long. It’s a common mistake. There are ways to fool-proof quiche making… Placing a water bath in the oven certainly helps. However, I find the best way to ensure your quiche is moist and fluffy in the middle is to pressure cook it. That’s right, bake it in your Instant Pot! Inside the pot, the pressure cooker is creating one heck of a steam bath for the quiche. This locks in the moisture, ensuring the perfect ultra-silky texture of a good French quiche. When the quiche comes out of the Instant Pot, it’s ridiculously soft and supple. It’s an airy disk of egg with speckled salty savory goodness dispersed throughout. Once you try this Instant Pot Keto Crustless Quiche, you will never go back to making regular quiche! This is absolutely the best way to do it!
Ingredients You Need
Eggs – I use whole eggs here, but you can use just egg whites for a lighter quiche! Heavy Cream – For added fluff and creamy texture. Fresh Spinach – Chop it up! Sun-Dried Tomatoes – Dice these up and be sure to drain them. Fontina Cheese – I love shredded fontina cheese here but gouda would also work well. Crumbled Feta – For salty, tangy bites! Fresh Rosemary – Or dried, if you prefer. Crushed Red Pepper – For just a bit of heat! Salt & Pepper – To taste.
How to Make Instant Pot Keto Crustless Quiche
Making quiche in an electric pressure cooker could not be easier! Butter a 7-8 cup soufflé dish. Place the trivet inside the Instant Pot. Then add 1 1/2 cups water to the pot and place the soufflé dish on the rack. Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Whisk well. Then whisk in the cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper. Stir in all the remaining ingredients. Pour the mixture into the soufflé dish. Lock the Instant Pot lid into place. Set on manual Pressure Cook High for 30 minutes. Once the timer goes off, turn the Instant Pot off and perform a Quick Release. Allow the quiche to sit in the Instant Pot for 5-10 minutes. Make sure the steam valve has dropped, then unlock the lid. Carefully lift the soufflé dish out of the Instant Pot. Cut and serve.
