Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 6 large Eggs
• 0.5 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Zucchini, diced
• 1 cup Baby spinach, chopped
• 0.5 cups Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, and salt. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture is crumbly but holds together when pressed.

Step 3

Press the almond flour mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 5

Distribute the diced zucchini, chopped spinach, and halved cherry tomatoes evenly over the baked crust.

Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the vegetables.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables and cheese, ensuring it fills all the gaps.

Step 8

Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the quiche cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your Low Carb Vegetarian Quiche as a standalone meal or pair it with a simple green salad.
