Quiche Lorraine Squares

We’ve started to compile a list of quiche recipes and I just had to add these Quiche Lorraine Squares as my top favorite.

Homemade, soft, quiche crust filled with an egg, cheese, bacon and green onion combination seasoned with salt, pepper, a dash of red pepper and nutmeg. It’s warm and delicious and a wonderful feel-good, light lunch or dinner option.

To make Quiche Lorraine Squares, you will need the following ingredients:

Steps to make Quiche Lorraine Squares

1	Preheat oven	5
Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
2	Combine crust ingredients	2
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour and ¼ teaspoon salt then cut in ⅔ cups of cold butter using a pastry blender or fork.
3	Add water	2
Mixture should resemble coarse crumbs then add just enough water to moisten the dough, about 4-5 tablespoons. Roll into a ball-shape.
4	Prepare crust	3
Roll out the prepared dough onto a lightly floured surface into a 16x12-inch rectangle shape. Transfer to an ungreased 9x13 baking dish and press into the bottom and up the sides.
5	Beat egg	1
In a mixing bowl, beat 1 egg white and brush over the dough.
6	Add cheese, bacon and green onions	2
Sprinkle ¾ ounce of Swiss cheese over the pastry and top with 1 pound of crumbled, crispy bacon and ¼ cup of green onion slices.
7	Combine filling mixture	2
In another mixing bowl, whisk 1 egg yolk with 5 eggs, 4 cups half & half, ½ teaspoon of salt, ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon of pepper and a dash of red pepper until combined. Pour over the ingredients in the quiche.
8	Bake	45
Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-55 minutes until baked in the center and knife in the center comes out clean.
9	Serve	15
Rest for about 15 minutes before slicing into squares for serving!
