SHOULD I SQUEEZE OUT THE LIQUID FROM THE COURGETTES BEFORE BAKING?

No, a little liquid from the courgettes is fine.

CAN THESE BE MADE IN MUFFIN TINS FOR INDIVIDUAL PORTIONS?

They sure can! Make sure you grease the muffin tins generously and then keep an eye on the baking time. They will take a lot less time to bake.

WHAT DISH CAN THIS BE MADE IN?

Use a quiche dish or a brownie tray.

HOW DO I MAKE THIS GLUTEN-FREE?

Simply swap regular flour for gluten-free flour.

Description

This easy quiche courgette is a cheesy, veggie-packed quiche that's perfect warm or cold — a no-fuss, no-crust, no-cream winner!

Ingredients

Scale

2 large grated courgettes, about 2 cups/350 g (also known as Zucchini)

3 eggs

1 cup grated cheese ( I use cheddar but you can use your favorite)

1/4 cup feta cheese (optional but highly recommended)

1 1/2 cups milk (I use full cream / whole milk)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a pie dish or quiche pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and flour. Season with salt and pepper.

Stir in the grated courgettes and most of the grated cheese (leave a little for the topping). If you're going with extras like fried bacon or mushrooms, now's the time to throw them in! Add the feta cheese and combine. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on the top.

Pour the mixture into your greased dish and bake for 30 minutes or until it’s golden and the center is set.

Let it rest: After baking, allow the quiche to cool for about 10 minutes. This helps it set and makes it easier to slice cleanly.

Slice it up, and enjoy! Whether you want to eat it warm or cold, this quiche is a star no matter what. ⭐️

Notes

This crustless courgette quiche is the perfect make-ahead dish for busy days! You can easily prepare it a day or two in advance. Simply follow the recipe and bake as usual. Once it's cooled, cover it tightly with plastic wrap or foil and pop it in the fridge. If you're super organized, you can even prep the ingredients (grate the courgettes, whisk the eggs and milk) the night before, and just assemble and bake the next day for freshly baked quiche.
