Scale

Quiche Ingredients

  • 2 Free Range Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Cottage Cheese
  • 1 Whole Wheat Tortilla
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Baby Spinach
  • 2 tablespoons Smoked Cheddar Cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 325 degrees F (170 degrees C) to ensure it reaches the optimal temperature for cooking the tortilla quiche evenly.
  2. Prepare Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the 2 free range eggs and 1/4 cup cottage cheese until well combined and smooth, creating a creamy base for the quiche filling.
  3. Assemble Quiche: Place the whole wheat tortilla inside a round cake pan, carefully shaping it into a bowl form to hold the mixture. Pour in the egg and cottage cheese mixture, then evenly distribute 1/2 cup fresh baby spinach over the top followed by 2 tablespoons of smoked cheddar cheese.
  4. Cook: Air fry the assembled quiche at 325 degrees F for 12 minutes, or until the egg is fully set and the cheese has melted, creating a warm, savory quiche with a crispy tortilla crust.

Notes

  • You can substitute smoked cheddar with your preferred type of cheese such as mozzarella or gouda for a different flavor profile.
  • Ensure the tortilla is properly shaped to hold the filling and avoid spills during cooking.
  • Fresh spinach can be swapped with kale or other leafy greens depending on your preference.
  • Serve warm for the best texture and flavor experience.
  • The recipe is ideal for a quick breakfast or light lunch and can be doubled for larger servings.
