Egg white quiche in a glass dish.

I love this egg white quiche recipe. It is light, airy, and packed with fresh vegetables. Egg whites can have a blander flavor compared to egg yolks so I have dressed up this Egg White Quiche recipe with cheese, fresh herbs, and lots of colorful veggies!

If you love a good quiche like me then you have to also try my Mediterranean Quiche or even my Potato Frittata which is very similar as well.

Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients for an egg white quiche.

Egg Whites – I use 10 in this recipe to fill up the quiche pan, they are light, fluffy, have low calories, and high protein making them the perfect base for this quiche.

Fresh Herbs – I love how vibrant fresh herbs are, especially in a quiche they add a beautiful aroma and taste.

Gruyere Cheese – This cheese has a rich and creamy flavor. I love using it in this quiche and on top of my French Onion Pork Chops.

For a full list of ingredients and amounts see the recipe card below.

How to Make an Egg White Quiche

Step #1: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line your pie or quiche pan with your pie crust, cutting off any excess dough.

Step #2: Using a fork, poke a couple holes in the bottom of the crust and bake in the oven for 5-7 minutes until the crust is ever so slightly baked. Then remove and set aside.

Step #3: In a large bowl whisk together the egg whites, milk and cheese.

Step #4: Next, add in the onion, garlic, fresh herbs, salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Fresh herbs and spices added to the egg white mixture.

Step #5: Place the spinach in a small microwavable bowl with a little bit of water. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave for 30 seconds. Then drain water out and set aside.

Step #6: Next, layer the tomatoes, peppers and spinach on top of the crust. The spinach can tend to clump in the middle of the quiche, so you can chop the spinach before adding it and have it be a little more evenly dispersed throughout. You can save some veggies to the side to add on top before baking.

Vegetables added into the pie crust

Step #7: Then, carefully pour the egg mixture into the pie crust.

Step #8: Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes until a knife comes out clean, then serve and enjoy!

FAQs

Can I use whole eggs for this quiche recipe?

Yes. You can easily use whole eggs if you prefer them to egg whites. The ratio from egg whites to eggs is 2:1 so you will need 5 whole eggs, or 6 if they are on the smaller side.

What other cheeses can I use for this recipe?

You can use any cheese you prefer. Some I would recommend would be mozzarella, feta cheese, white cheddar, or even Monterey jack.

Storage Information

You can store this quiche in an airtight container in your fridge for 3-4 days. With the amount of egg whites used in this recipe, I would not recommend freezing this egg white quiche recipe.

To reheat you can do so in your oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit or in your microwave until everything has warmed through.

Start your day with these mouth-watering Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits. They are fluffy and packed with flavor in every bite!

Board filled with jalapeno cheddar biscuits.

Dive into this Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits Recipe! They are everything you love about biscuits with a cheesy and flavorful kick. What I love about this recipe is that you knead in the cold butter as any traditional biscuit is made to create these beautiful soft and flaky layers that melt in your mouth.

I love to have these for breakfast by themselves or even as a base for a nice breakfast sandwich, or serve them with dinner alongside my Brown Sugar Glazed Ham and The Best Ever Oven Roasted Green Beans.

Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients for cheddar jalapeno biscuits.

Cold Butter – Butter is so important in the lamination process of these biscuits which give them their flaky layers.

Jalapenos – I love adding jalapenos into classic recipes to add a little kick like I did with my Strawberry Jalapeño Margaritas.

Cream Cheese – Adding creaminess, moisture, and additional layering into these flaky biscuits.

For a fill list of ingredients and amounts see the recipe card below.

How to Make Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits

Step #1: In a large food processor combine the flour, baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt and butter. Pulse everything together until butter forms into pea sized balls.

FAQs

Are these Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits spicy?

No, these are very mild. The stem and the seeds of a jalapeno is where they get their heat from. For this recipe they are seeded and diced so you still get the jalapeno flavoring without the spice.

Do I need a biscuit cutter for these jalapeno cheddar biscuits?

No. You do not need a pastry cutter for these biscuits you simply cut them evenly using a knife.

Storage Information

You can store these jalapeno buttermilk biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or in your fridge for up to 1 week.

If you want to freeze these tender biscuits you can do so in your freezer for up to 1 month. To reheat, thaw to room temperature or you can warm them up in your microwave until everything is heated through.

Plate of stacked vegan blueberry muffins.

You’re about to find your new favorite start to the day and it is these Vegan Blueberry muffins. They’re so fluffy that they melt in your mouth just like my Scotch Pancakes plus, they have pops of tart and sweetness as you bite into them.

Why We Love This Recipe

  • Of course, because it’s vegan!
  • The blueberries add a pop of tart and sweetness within the muffin.
  • They’re a perfect grab and go breakfast just like my French Toast Cups with Bourbon Sauce.
  • The sugar topping adds a little crisp sweet flavor as you bite into these muffins.

Recipe Ingredients

Blueberry muffin ingredients.

Apple Cider Vinegar: This might seem like a random ingredient but when combined with Almond Milk it makes a replacement “vegan buttermilk” that’s used in Vegan baking.

Blueberries: You can use fresh or frozen blueberries, but in my opinion fresh taste way better and keep your batter from turning purple.

For ingredients and exact amounts please see the recipe card below.

How to Make Vegan Blueberry Muffins

Step #1: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and place liners in your muffin tin and spray them lightly with oil.

Step #2: Next, combine your almond milk and apple cider vinegar in a large measuring cup or small bowl and set aside to curdle, this will become your “buttermilk”.

Step #3: In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cornstarch.

Step #4: Then add in the oil, vanilla, and milk/vinegar mixture into the dry ingredients and stir everything together. It’s okay if there are small lumps in the batter.

Wet ingredients added into the dry ingredients.

Step #5: Next, in a small bowl add the blueberries and 1 teaspoon of flour and coat the blueberries in the flour. Be sure to save a few blueberries on the side for topping the batter before baking.

Step #6: After the blueberries have been coated in a light layer of flour, add them into the muffin batter and mix in.

Step #7: Next fill your prepared muffin pan ¾ the way full with the batter and then top the batter with a couple of small blueberries and a generous sprinkle of granulated sugar over the tops.

Step #8: Bake in your oven for 20-25 minutes until they are ever so slightly golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

Step #9: Finally, serve and enjoy!

Expert Tips

Do not skip adding flour to your blueberries! It might seem like a silly step, but it makes all the difference! Adding flour to your blueberries keeps them from all sinking to the bottom of the batter.

Don’t over bake! These turn ever so slightly golden brown when they are done. If you leave them in until they are the traditional golden brown color when it comes to baking, they will likely be overdone.

Be gentle folding in the blueberries. If you are using frozen blueberries or if a fresh one bursts in the batter it could turn your batter purple. There is no difference in taste, they just might come out looking a little different.

Storage Information

You can store these vegan muffins in an airtight container on your counter for 2-3 days. Or in your fridge for 4-5 days.

What is a Frittata?

A frittata is an Italian dish that is egg-based and filled with additional ingredients such as cheese, vegetables, or even proteins. It is very similar to a quiche, but it doesn’t have the crust that quiche’s typically do. If you’re a fan of this frittata concept, you might also want to explore our Mushroom Leek Frittata recipe.

  • Whether it’s a family brunch or a potluck, potato frittata is a crowd-pleaser. Its delightful flavors and filling nature make it a dish that everyone enjoys.

Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients for a potato frittata on a table.
  • Eggs: Eggs make the frittata soft and hold all the ingredients together. They mix the tastes well, making each bite delicious and smooth.
  • Potatoes: Potatoes make the frittata hearty. They’re like a soft base, soaking up all the yummy flavors. If you love potatoes, be sure to explore our Potato Chip Spanish Tortilla recipe too!
  • Gruyere Cheese: This cheese makes the frittata creamy and cheesy.
  • Spinach: Spinach gives a fresh, green taste.
  • Green Onions: Green onions add a zesty taste, making the frittata more interesting.

See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.

Variations

  • Bacon and Parmesan: Cook slices of bacon, rough chop the bacon, then mix with large eggs, grated parmesan cheese, and sautéed garlic. Bake in the oven for a savory twist on the classic frittata.
  • Mediterranean Delight: Create a Mediterranean-inspired frittata with fresh parsley, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, and diced tomatoes.
  • Creamy Dream: Whisk large eggs with heavy cream for a luscious base. Add sautéed potatoes, onions, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese for a creamy, indulgent frittata that’s a real treat.

How to Make a Potato Frittata

Step #1: In a large pot, boil water, add the potato cubes, and boil for 3-5 minutes until they are just tender.

Step #2: While the potatoes are boiling, in a large bowl whisk together the eggs, cheese, spinach, onions, salt, and pepper.

Step #3: Next, drain the potatoes and add them to your bowl of eggs.

Step #4: Then, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add in your olive oil.

Step #5: Pour the frittata mixture into the skillet, make sure to distribute the potatoes evenly over the bottom of the pan.

Step #6: Next, cover with a lid and cook for 10-15 minutes gently shaking the pan every few minutes. Once the eggs are no longer runny and the frittata can easily be pulled from the bottom of the skillet it is ready to be turned.

Step #7: Using a plate that is slightly larger than your skillet in diameter, put it on top of the skillet and flip the frittata onto the other side. Then place the flipped frittata back into the skillet to cook the other side for 2-5 minutes, this time without covering.

Step #8: When the frittata is fully cooked remove it from the pan and flip it back over onto a serving plate. This allows the pretty side to be up.

 Step #9: Finally, garnish with green chives on top, serve, and enjoy!

Expert Tips

  • Boiling Potatoes: First, boil potato pieces for 3-5 minutes until they’re soft but not too mushy. This way, they’ll be perfect in your frittata.
  • Spread Ingredients Evenly: When pouring the frittata mix into the pan, ensure the even distribution of the potatoes. That way, every bite will taste just right.
  • Nail the Flip: To get your frittata looking great, use a plate a bit bigger than your pan when flipping it. This trick keeps it in shape and looking good.
  • Add Chives for Freshness: Sprinkle green chives on top of your potato frittata at the end. They’ll make it look fresh and colorful, and they taste good too.

Treat yourself to the quintessential Danish delight – our Danish Kringle! Packed with savory remonce, nuts, and draped in a silken glaze, it’s a pastry that promises a taste of Copenhagen’s charm!

Danish Kringle served on a plate topped with icing.

Homemade pastries always taste better than store-bought because you take the time to make them with your own hands. Other recipes that include homemade pastries are my Apple Strudel, Easy Bourbon Pecan Tart, and Umm Ali (Egyptian Sweet Pastry Dessert)

If you haven’t tried a slice of Danish Kringle before, you are missing out! This recipe will definitely satisfy any sweet tooth! Traditional remonce and an assortment of pecans, walnuts, and almonds pack the inside of the Kringle, creating a nutty and textured filling. Of course, if that wasn’t enough, it is topped with a smooth and silky glaze to create a delicious Danish pastry!

History of Danish Kringle

Over time, bakers adjusted to the classic oval ring we know today. Making it official, Kringle became the “Official Wisconsin Pastry” in 2013, but it has been around much longer than that. Danish immigrants originally brought Kringle to Racine in the late 1800s. These unique sweet bakery treats quickly became popular in southeastern Wisconsin.

What is Remonce?

You may keep seeing the word “remonce” being used, but what exactly is it? Remonce is a traditional paste used in Danish pastries that combines granulated sugar and butter. These two ingredients are combined and baked along with the pastry.

Reasons to Love This Danish Recipe

  • I love the blend of buttery pastry, sweet remonce, and nuts offers a delightful burst of rich, layered flavors.
  • Often associated with celebrations and holidays, it adds a special touch to festive occasions.
  • Danish Kringles is versatile and can come in various flavors.

Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients for Danish Kringle recipe prepared on a table.
  • Butter: It provides a rich, creamy taste and creates a flaky texture that gives a luxurious mouthfeel.
  • Nuts: They offer a crunchy texture and nutty flavor.
  • Confectioners Sugar (Icing): It gives a sweet, smooth finish. The icing’s sugary glaze perfectly complements the pastry’s richness.

See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.

Variations

Consider adding cream cheese or cinnamon to your filling options. Cream cheese adds a creamy, tangy dimension that pairs wonderfully with the buttery layers of the pastry. Meanwhile, cinnamon introduces a warm, spicy note.

Expert Tip

When applying the filling, aim for an even layer across the dough to ensure every bite contains the perfect balance of flavors and textures. Avoid overloading the center, which could lead to uneven baking and difficulty in sealing the pastry.

French crepes on a white plate.

There are so many classic French dishes that remind me of my travels to France because you would see them on every menu. Others, similar to these French Crepes, are my Croque Monsieur (Toasted Ham and Cheese Sandwich), Savory Crepes with Chimichurri Sauce, and Earl Grey Creme Brulee.

If you have not been to France and have always wanted to go, do it! I promise you will not regret it. The food alone is worth it! But of course, we cannot forget about all the history and beautiful architecture it also has in store. One thing you will find on the menu at almost every French café you stumble upon is these scrumptious crepes. They are a staple in French cuisine, and if you don’t end up making it over to Europe, this recipe will bring France into your own home!

Reasons to Love These Fluffy Crepes

  • I love that this fluffy crepe recipe makes crepes with a delightful texture, balancing lightness and richness in every bite.
  • Their versatility allows for endless sweet and savory crepe fillings combinations.
  • French Crêpes are easy to make with simple ingredients, they’re accessible for any home cook.

Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients for fluffy French crepes prepared on a table.
  • Whole Milk: Imparts creaminess and moisture, contributing to the delicate, light texture.
  • Butter: Melted butter in the batter brings a rich, subtle flavor and improves texture. It makes the crepes tender and slightly crisp at the edges.

See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.

Variations

  • Salted Butter Variation: Replace salted butter with unsalted butter for a more controlled salt content. When cooking, you can also use a small amount of unsalted butter to grease the pan.
  • Filling Options: Combine smoked salmon, dill, and cream cheese for a savory base. For a rich, sweet contrast, add a swirl of coconut cream with vanilla extract.

How to Make French Crepes

Step #1: In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, and salt. Set aside.

Dry ingredients in a bowl.

Step #2: In a large bowl, beat the milk and eggs together with an electric mixer or the whisk attachment on a stand mixer.

Topping Suggestions

  • Berries and Cream: These crepes are my favorite! They are filled with color and sweetness and almost look too good to eat! For these, I spread some fresh whipped cream on a crepe and then layered in some fresh fruit like strawberries and blueberries. Then, you can fold it up and add additional toppings on top!

  • Banana and Nutella: Is there a better combination than chocolate and bananas? For these sweet crepes, I spread on a pat of that delicious and chocolatey hazelnut spread and layered with bananas. And if you want to add some extra sweetness to your day, drizzle some chocolate sauce over the top, and voila!

Expert Tips

  • Batter Resting: Allow the crepe batter to rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This helps the flour to fully absorb the liquid, resulting in smoother, more cohesive crepes.
  • Pan Temperature: Ensure the pan is evenly heated before pouring the batter. A crepe pan that’s too hot or too cold can cause the crepes to cook unevenly.
  • Consistent Thickness: Use a ladle or measuring cup for the batter to maintain consistent thickness and size for each crepe.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to flip my French Crepes perfectly?

For the perfect flip, make sure the crepe is cooked enough on one side before attempting. Gently slide a thin, flexible spatula under the crepe, then lift and flip it with a swift, confident motion.

How can I keep my crepes warm if I’m making a large batch?

To keep crepes warm for serving, preheat your oven to a low temperature (around 200°F or 90°C) and place the cooked crepes on a baking sheet covered with foil.

Storage Info

Store French crepes by layering them between sheets of wax paper and wrapping them in plastic wrap before placing them in an airtight container. They’ll stay fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days. For longer storage, crepes can be frozen for up to two months; ensure they’re well-wrapped in plastic wrap and then foil to prevent freezer burn.

To reheat, simply place them in a warm skillet for a minute or two, or microwave for a few seconds until heated through.
