Ingredients

Pie Crust
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
1/4 cup ice water

Quiche Recipe
4 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded cheese gruyere, mozzarella, cheddar, provolone, or feta
1 1/2 cups add-ins

Add-Ins (mix and match)
1/2 cup cooked crumbled bacon
3/4 cup diced ham
3/4 cup cooked ground sausage
1 cup chopped frozen spinach thawed and drained
1 cup frozen broccoli thawed and drained
1 cup steamed asparagus cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup sauted sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup sauted shallot or onion

Instructions

Pie Crust:
1 In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, and salt. Slice the butter and shortening into small cubes. Use a pastry cutter to cut the butter and shortening into the flour, rocking the pastry cutter back and forth, until the mixture is the texture of a coarse meal or sand.

2 Slowly pour cold water into the flour mixture (about 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring between additions, until just mixed together. Do not overwork. Use your hands to gently press the dough into a ball. Flatten into a 2-inch disc. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before rolling.

3 Unwrap chilled dough and transfer to a lightly floured surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out into a large 12-inch circle, rolling from the center each time to keep the thickness even. Gently transfer crust to an un-greased pie plate, allowing the crust to hang over the edges of the pie plate. Roll and pinch or crimp the edges of your crust. Use a fork to prick holes into the bottom of the crust. Place parchment paper on top of the pie crust to create a bowl. Fill with pie weights or dried, uncooked beans. This will prevent the pie crust from sliding or bubbling. Bake in a 400 degree F oven for 10 minutes to par bake. Remove from oven and let sit until ready to fill.

Quiche Recipe:

1 In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, salt, and pepper until well combined. Stir in desired cheese.

2 Place prepared add-ins into the bottom of the par-baked pie crust. Pour egg mixture over the top.

3 Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes until center is set.
