Ingredients

• 1 piece premade pie crust
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 pieces Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Roll out the premade pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim and crimp the edges as desired, and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until smooth. Set aside.

Step 4

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the thinly sliced Granny Smith apples and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

Step 5

Sprinkle the brown sugar over the apples and continue to cook for another 2–3 minutes, allowing the sugar to caramelize. Remove the skillet from heat and let the apples cool slightly.

Step 6

Spread the shredded sharp cheddar cheese evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust.

Step 7

Arrange the caramelized apple slices on top of the cheese in a circular pattern or evenly distributed.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture over the apples and cheese, ensuring it fills the crust evenly.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the quiche to the preheated oven. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. To check for doneness, insert a knife into the center of the quiche—it should come out clean.

Step 10

Let the quiche cool for 10–15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 11

Enjoy your Smithfield Inn's Apple Cinnamon Quiche warm or at room temperature!
