How to Make this Tomato and Asparagus Quiche Recipe

STEP ONE: Prepare the Puff Pastry

Thaw the puff pastry in the refrigerator overnight.

On a floured surface, gently unfold the puff pastry and roll it out slightly larger than your tart pan. Transfer the pastry to the tart pan, trimming any excess dough. Cover with aluminum foil and add pie weights or dry beans.

Pre-bake the crust at 400°F for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it rest.

STEP TWO: Prepare the Tomatoes

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place halved heirloom cherry tomatoes on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with olive oil. Roast the tomatoes for about 20 minutes, until they begin to dry out slightly.

STEP THREE: Prepare the Filling

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle shredded Gruyere cheese evenly over the pre-baked crust. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese.

Arrange the asparagus spears in a criss-cross pattern on top of the egg mixture. Place the roasted tomatoes on top, cut side up.

STEP FOUR: Bake the Quiche

Increase the oven temperature to 425°F. Bake the quiche for approximately 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. Allow the quiche to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

Storage

Store leftover tomato quiche in an airtight container for up to 3 days. For freezer storage, wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and foil, then freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat in the oven at 350°F until warmed through.
