I needed a gluten free quiche recipe. I just made one and it is rally good! I had some friends over and I had to make do with green and red peppers instead of spinach. I used a greased pie glass container with parchment pepper at the bottom instead of the iron skillet. I baked four batches in a convection oven and it took 20 more minutes than your recipe. I also used half a cup of milk and half a cup of sour cream because that is all I had. Also, I used turkey and pepperoni in place of bacon. Everyone like it very much. I am very grateful for sharing your recipe! God reward you.
Thank you Sandra 🙂 I am so happy to hear you and your friends enjoyed this gluten-free quiche:) That is the beauty of it, you can adapt the recipe according to your tastes and with ingredients you have on hand. Cheers, Ella.
