Looking for a dish that’s easy to whip up, yet undeniably satisfying? This sour cream and chive crustless quiche might just be the answer. It’s creamy, fluffy, and packed with the classic flavor combination of tangy sour cream and aromatic chives. Plus, it’s totally customizable if you have any extras you’d like to throw in (crumbled sausage or bacon, anyone?). Let’s get started!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup whole milk or heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup freshly chopped chives, plus extra for garnish
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper (optional for added color)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or oil for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven (10 minutes): Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with the unsalted butter or oil.
  2. Mix the Base (5 minutes): While the oven is preheating, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, and milk or heavy cream until smooth in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add Ingredients (3 minutes): Fold in the cheddar cheese, chopped chives, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine. If using, fold in the diced red bell pepper.
  4. Pour and Bake (30-35 minutes): Pour the mixture into the greased pie dish. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and slightly golden on top.
  5. Cool and Serve (10 minutes): Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Garnish with additional chives on top before slicing and serving.

Notes

Nailing this quiche is all about the simplicity of its ingredients. If you want a creamier texture, opt for heavy cream instead of milk. The beauty of a crustless quiche is its versatility – you can easily throw in other veggies or cheeses you have on hand. Serve this dish with a side salad or fruit for a complete meal and enjoy!
