how long to bake a quiche
The baking time for a quiche can vary depending on the size of the quiche, the filling ingredients, and the oven temperature. Here are some general guidelines for baking a quiche:
Small quiche (6-8 inches in diameter):
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Medium quiche (9-10 inches in diameter):
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Large quiche (11-12 inches in diameter):
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Deep-dish quiche (thicker crust and more filling):
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 50-65 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
How to check if the quiche is done:
- Check the edges: They should be golden brown and crispy.
- Check the center: It should be set and not jiggly.
- Check the internal temperature: It should be at least 165°F (74°C).
- Let it rest: Remove the quiche from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Remember, these are general guidelines, and the baking time may vary depending on your specific quiche recipe and oven. Always keep an eye on the quiche while it’s baking, and adjust the baking time as needed.
