Spinach Quiche

With creamy feta, tender spinach, a flaky crust, and a lightened-up filling, this is a quick and easy Spinach Quiche that welcomes second servings.

Why You’ll Love This Spinach Quiche Recipe

• Master of Flexibility. Quiche is one of the foods I turn to most, especially this spinach quiche (and my Easy Quiche). Few foods can flow so effortlessly between a quick early morning breakfast, lazy Sunday brunch, light-yet-satisfying weekday lunch, AND family dinner.
• It Will Rise to the Occasion. This stunning spinach feta quiche is an ideal addition to your next social gathering, a special family weekend, or a holiday feast. It’s pretty enough to stand alone but lean enough to allow you to fill your plate with other dishes too (like a side of Fruit Salad and Baked Bacon).
• Healthy AND Delicious. As with my Broccoli Quiche and Pesto Quiche, this recipe bridges the gap between nutritious and delicious. It’s loaded with vegetables and protein-packed eggs and Greek yogurt. Thanks to creamy feta and flaky crust, it tastes like more of an indulgence than it is.

How to Make The Best Spinach Quiche

The Ingredients

• Pie Crust. You can make a homemade crust (I love this easy Whole Wheat Pie Crust and Oil Pie Crust) or keep it simple with a store-bought crust.
• Spinach. With iron, vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, and calcium, spinach packs this quiche with a plethora of nutrients and pairs perfectly with the sweet leeks and tangy feta. (For an extra serving of greens, serve the quiche with small glasses of Blueberry Spinach Smoothie.)
• Leeks. A mild, sweet onion, leeks lend themselves to a variety of dishes. In this healthy spinach quiche, sautéed leeks melt beautifully into a fluffy egg filling, where their gentle flavor shines. Check out my guide on how to cut and clean leeks.

• Feta. Lends the filling just the right amount of rich and creamy cheese goodness.

• Eggs. A combination of whole eggs and egg whites makes this one of the loveliest quiches I’ve ever tasted. It’s light but has enough heft not to be mistaken for an Egg White Frittata.
• Greek Yogurt. My swap that turns this typically decadent brunch recipe into a healthy spinach quiche without heavy cream. The Greek yogurt cuts fat and calories while keeping the custard filling rich and moist.
• Milk. You can use any kind you like. I opt for nonfat, but low-fat or whole milk also work. For a super rich quiche, use half-and-half.

The Directions

1. Blind Bake the Crust. Bake until lightly golden, remove, and let cool.

2. Sauté the Vegetables. Cook until the spinach has just wilted.

3. Whisk the Egg Mixture. Make sure to use a bowl that’s big enough for whisking.

4. Assemble the Quiche. Add the spinach mixture and feta.

5. Bake. Pour in the egg mixture. Bake spinach quiche at 350 degrees F for 45 to 55 minutes. ENJOY!

Recipe Variations

• Gluten Free Spinach Quiche. You can make this spinach quiche gluten free by using your favorite store-bought gluten-free pie crust or homemade recipe.
• Spinach Quiche without Leeks. If you’re not a fan of leeks, you can simply omit them from the recipe. For added flavor, saute the spinach with a few cloves garlic instead.
• Spinach and Mushroom Quiche Recipe. Add some cooked, chopped mushrooms with the spinach and leeks. If your sauteed mushrooms are liquidy, blot them dry first. (Try my Sautéed Mushrooms.)
• Roasted Garlic Spinach Quiche. Add a few cloves of chopped Roasted Garlic with the spinach and leeks.
• Ham Spinach Quiche. Add some diced, cooked ham with the spinach and leeks.

Storage Tips

• To Store. Refrigerate leftover quiche in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
• To Reheat. Rewarm quiche in a pie dish in the oven at 350 degrees F or in the microwave until heated through.
• To Freeze. Spinach quiche can be frozen. Freeze leftovers in an airtight, freezer-safe storage container for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

What to Serve With Spinach Quiche

• Bacon. A bacon spinach quiche combo is sure to be a hit! You can’t go wrong with a side of crispy Air Fryer Bacon.
• Hash Browns. Hash Brown Casserole, Cauliflower Hash Browns, and Sweet Potato Hash Browns would be tasty with this spinach quiche recipe.
• French Toast. For a major crowd-pleaser, try pairing this quiche with Overnight French Toast, French Toast Sticks, or Baked French Toast.
• Salad. An Arugula Salad or Spinach Strawberry Salad with Balsamic Poppy Seed Dressing would be a delightful fresh side dish if you’re serving spinach quiche for dinner or lunch.

Recommended Tools to Make this Recipe

• Everyday Skillet. For sautéing the leeks and spinach before filling the quiche crust.
• 9-inch Pie Dish. I love this pie plate for savory quiche recipes and sweet pie recipes, like my Grammy’s Lemon Cream Pie.
• Mini Whisk. This little whisk is not only cute as a button, but it’s functional too. I never knew I needed a tiny whisk in my life until I purchased one.

Recipe Tips and Tricks

• Use Fresh Spinach. I recommend avoiding frozen spinach for this recipe, as it will release more liquid and might cause the quiche to be watery. This recipe shows how to cook spinach without it getting soggy, so it will also hold up better (and taste better!) during baking than frozen.
• Prebake the Crust. Whatever you do, don’t skip the blind baking step! If the crust isn’t pre-baked, it’s much more likely to become soggy on bottom. We want the crust to be flaky and crisp instead.
• Dress it Up. We’ve found this quiche to be a stunner all on its own, but you can certainly dress it up with toppings for an even more elevated look. Try crumbled, cooked bacon, fresh herbs, slices of fresh tomatoes, or chopped green onions.
