Cheesy Sausage & Spinach Quiche - Aunt Bee's Recipes (2024)

Aug 1, 2017|Posted byBrandi Burgess|8 comments |

This recipe has been on my list to try for years now? I don’t know why we waited so long! Would you believe I made it 2 weeks in a row this past month? LOL! Guess we are making up for lost time!

I honestly think this is the MOST decadent quiche recipe in the world! The secret? LOTS of heavy cream of course 😉

We used spicy breakfast sausage so we left out the black pepper and you could DEFINITELY sub the sausage for 6 thick cut slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled. We love to use a REALLY sharp cheddar cheese for this recipe!

Please make this next weekend for an epic brunch!

Allow pie crust to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before preparing you brown sausag, shred cheese and chop spinach.

Whisk the eggs together. Add heavy cream, salt, and onion powder.

Place crust in the bottom of a deep-dish pie pan and do not poke holes in it. Sprinkle half of the chopped spinach around the bottom of the crust. Top with half of the cooked sausage, and half of the shredded cheese. Repeat the layers again, beginning with the rest of the spinach, followed by the sausage, and cheese.

Pour egg and cream mixture into the pie crust over the layered ingredients. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until egg mixture is firm and the top is golden.

Cut into wedges and serve!

    Brandi, I am not really a Fan of spinach, but The picture of your recipe looks so yummy. I was wondering if it would be possible to use canned spinach instead of fresh spinach for this recipe I just might give this recipe a try. Thank you for sharing this with us all. ?? Sandy

    Yes you can but squeeze well but I use the frozen one but make sure squeeze well and before I add I dab a paper towel just to make sure. A good addition is canned or fresh mushrooms too.

    This was delicious! I used fresh spinach torn into small pieces (uncooked), fresh sliced mushrooms, and fat free half and half for the egg mixture. Followed the rest of the recipe to a "T" and SOOOO good!

    What a wonderful recipe! It’s absolutely delicious! I didn’t have heavy cream, so I substituted it with 2% milk. It was still incredibly good! ?

    Thanks for the recipe. It was very good! I turned it into a keto recipe by making a keto crust.The only change was the crust. I’ll be making it again.
