- 2 cups (250g) flour
- 1 stick (110 g) cold butter, cut in tiny cubes
- 1 egg beaten

- Preheat the oven to 220C. Roll out the dough and fit the crust to a 10 inch tart pan. Punch it with a fork and bake it for 15 minutes. Remove and let it cool. Turn the oven to 190C.
- In a bowl beat eggs with sour cream, salt pepper and cheese. Layer the spinach over the crust and pour the egg mixture on top.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, and serve warm or cold. The rest of the quiche can keep up t0 3 days if refrigerated.

What can I use to replace the eggs
II haven't tried this without eggs, but maybe some cream cheese may work well for the filling and for the crust try use water (about 4 tbsp) instead of egg. Let me know if you give this a try.
What to use instead of sour cream? How about cream + lemon juice?
I think it may work:)
Or greek yogurt .
Very tasty! I made it with mushrooms and zucchini – wonderful combination!
Thanks a lot for the recipe! 🙂
