Ingredients

• 1 medium (about 8 ounces) Sweet potato
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 9-inch Unbaked pie crust
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
• 2 stalks Green onions, sliced

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Peel the sweet potato, then chop it into small cubes (about 1/2-inch).

Step 3

Toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.

Step 4

Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized. Remove from oven and set aside.

Step 5

Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).

Step 6

Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and crimp the edges if desired. Set aside.

Step 7

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, nutmeg, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper until smooth.

Step 8

Spread the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the bottom of the pie crust.

Step 9

Scatter the roasted sweet potatoes and dried cranberries evenly over the cheese layer.

Step 10

Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the crust, making sure it distributes evenly.

Step 11

Sprinkle the sliced green onions on top of the quiche.

Step 12

Place the quiche on the center rack of the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden. You can check doneness by inserting a toothpick or knife into the center—it should come out clean.

Step 13

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 14

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Sweet Potato Cranberry Quiche!
