Ingredients

• 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 200 grams Brie cheese
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Roll out the pre-made pie crust and gently press it into a 9-inch pie or tart pan. Trim any excess dough along the edges and prick the bottom of the crust several times with a fork.

Step 3

Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 4

Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Slice the onion into thin half-moons and add them to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 10-15 minutes or until the onions are caramelized and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Cut the rind from the Brie cheese (optional for a smoother texture) and slice or tear the cheese into small pieces.

Step 6

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme until well combined.

Step 7

Remove the crust from the refrigerator and scatter the caramelized onions evenly across the bottom. Layer the Brie cheese pieces on top of the onions.

Step 8

Pour the egg and cream mixture over the onions and Brie, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.

Step 9

Place the quiche on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
