Ingredients

Fresh pizza dough

250 g

Olive oil

1 tsp

Brown onion

2 medium, roughly chopped

Garlic

2 clove(s), crushed

White sugar

1 tsp

Cooked frozen spinach

250 g, chopped

Egg(s)

2 medium

Egg white

1 medium

Reduced-fat evaporated milk

½ cup(s), (125ml)

Light sour cream

¼ cup(s), (60ml)

Ground nutmeg

tsp

Extra light cheddar cheese

cup(s), grated, (60g)

Cherry tomatoes

12 individual

Oil spray

1 x 3 second spray(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 170°C. Lightly spray a 20cm cake tin with oil. Prepare dough as per packet instructions. Roll dough into a 30cm circle on a lightly floured surface. Place into prepared cake tin so edges fall just on top of tin.
  2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook onion, garlic and sugar, stirring occasionally, for around 8 minutes or until onions are light golden. Add spinach and cook stirring for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  3. Whisk eggs and egg white in a medium bowl. Whisk in milk, sour cream, nutmeg and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle cheese evenly over dough. Top evenly with spinach mixture, then pour in egg mixture. Arrange tomatoes cut side up on top of egg mixture. Place quiche onto a baking tray and transfer to oven. Bake for 40 minutes or until centre is set. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving

Notes

TIP: If you can’t find fresh pizza dough, you can use frozen puff pastry sheets for the base
