Description

Packed with savory bacon, sausage, and ham, this protein-rich quiche is an easy, satisfying breakfast or brunch option that everyone will enjoy. Cooked to perfection in the air fryer with a flaky crust and creamy, cheesy filling, it's a must-try for meat lovers!

Ingredients 

  • 1 sheet pie crust dough, cut from refrigerated pie crust - about 1/3 crust
  • 1/8 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon bacon crumbles, cooked
  • 1 tablespoon ham cubes, cooked
  • 1 tablespoon ground breakfast sausage, cooked
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Remove refrigerated pie crust from the refrigerator about 15 minutes prior to preparing quiche.
  • Unroll the dough and place your tart pan on top of the crust. Cut a circle (it doesn’t have to be perfect) about 1 inch outside the border of the tart pan.
  • Press the crust into the tart pan, tucking the edges down along the sides and cutting off any excess dough so that the crust is even with the top of the pan.
  • Place the tart pan into the basket of the air fryer and cook at 300°F for 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle cheese into the bottom of the tart pan and then distribute meats over the top of the cheese.
  • Whisk together egg and heavy cream until smooth. Take a moment to whisk some extra air into the egg mixture.
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture over the fillings in the crust. The egg mixture should reach the top edge of the crust. Do not overfill.
  • Place the prepared quiche back into the basket of the air fryer and cook at 300°F for another 10 minutes or until the egg is set in the center.
  • Allow it to cool for 1-2 minutes, and then carefully pop the quiche from the tart pan. Use a spatula to remove the quiche from the bottom plate of the tart pan and serve immediately or set on a cooling rack to cool.
