Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 block (14 ounces) firm tofu, drained
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons tapioca starch
- 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 9-inch prepared pie crust
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté until caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
Step 3
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, chopped broccoli, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for an additional 5-7 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and tender. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 4
In a blender or food processor, combine the drained tofu, almond milk, nutritional yeast, tapioca starch, and nutmeg. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with the tofu mixture. Stir until the vegetables are evenly distributed throughout the tofu mixture.
Step 6
Pour the entire mixture into the prepared 9-inch pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set.
Step 8
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your dairy-free broccoli quiche.
