Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust (if making homemade):
-
In a bowl, mix flour and salt.
-
Add cold butter and cut it into the flour using a pastry cutter or fork until it resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Gradually add ice water, 1 tbsp at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
-
Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
-
Roll out the dough on a floured surface and fit it into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish. Trim edges and prick the bottom with a fork.
-
Chill for 15 minutes, then blind-bake at 190°C (375°F) for 10–12 minutes.
2. Prepare the Filling:
-
In a pan, sauté onion and garlic until soft. Add spinach and cook until wilted (if using frozen, squeeze out excess water).
-
In a bowl, whisk eggs, cream, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
3. Assemble & Bake:
-
Spread spinach mixture over the crust. Sprinkle cheese evenly.
-
Pour the egg mixture over the top.
-
Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 30–35 minutes, until set and golden.
-
Let cool 10 minutes before slicing.
Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
