I’m over the moon happy to share my special recipe for spinach quiche with sun-dried tomatoes with you today!
Recipe Ingredients for Spinach Quiche with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
These are all the ingredients you’ll need to make this delicious and easy spinach quiche recipe: homemade quiche crust, eggs, heavy cream, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, ground nutmeg, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, butter, yellow onion, clove of garlic, and fresh spinach leaves.
How to Make Easy Spinach Quiche with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Begin by preparing the quick and easy quiche crust from scratch. As your homemade crust chills in the freezer for 20 minutes, begin preparing the quiche filling. In a large saucepan, saute the onion, garlic, and fresh spinach in a tablespoon of butter. Once the spinach becomes wilted, remove the pan from heat.
Prepare the Basic Quiche Filling
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the eggs, heavy cream, ground nutmeg, sea salt, and freshly-ground black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated. You’ve just prepared the basic quiche filling! Now, fold in the cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and the spinach/onion mixture.
Slowly pour the filling into the chilled quiche crust that’s already within a quiche pan or dish.
Bake your spinach quiche with sun-dried tomatoes in a 350 degree oven for 45-55 minutes. I recommend tenting the quiche with foil to prevent the crust from burning. You can tell your quiche is done when the crust is a light-golden brown and the filling no longer jiggles when you move the quiche pan back and forth.
How to Serve Spinach Quiche with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Allow your quiche to cool for 15 minutes or until you can touch the quiche pan without getting burned. I use a quiche pan with a removable bottom so that I can easily remove the spinach quiche from the pan and transfer it to a beautiful cake stand. Spinach quiche with sun-dried tomatoes makes a delightful meal when served with a fresh garden salad with tahini salad dressing.
Spinach quiche is a great choice for brunch, lunch or dinner. Because it’s beautiful and festive, it’s also perfect to serve at garden parties, baby showers, wedding showers, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and other special occasions.

Description
This beautiful spinach quiche with sun-dried tomatoes is delightfully savory and super scrumptious! What you’ll love most is that it’s made with fresh spinach and it’s quick and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 purchased or homemade quiche crust (for an 11/12-inch quiche pan with fluted sides 1–2 inches high), unbaked and chilled
- 8 eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream (same as “heavy whipping cream”)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/3 cup yellow onion
- 1 clove garlic, pressed or minced
- 5 cups tightly-packed fresh spinach leaves, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained of oil and chopped
Instructions
- Adjust your oven rack to the center position. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Prepare the basic quiche filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the eggs, heavy cream, sea salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix until well blended. Set the bowl aside.
- In a large saucepan, saute the onion and garlic for about 30 seconds until they’re delightfully fragrant. Add the spinach leaves and saute until the spinach leaves are wilted. Remove the pan from heat.
- Retrieve the bowl of the stand mixer. Add the cheeses, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach mixture to the basic quiche filling. Fold these ingredients into the mixture until everything is well incorporated.
- Slowly pour the filling into the chilled quiche crust that’s within the quiche pan or dish. Tent the quiche with a piece of foil to prevent the crust from over browning. Bake your spinach quiche for 45-55 minutes, or until the crust is a beautiful light-golden brown, and the filling does not jiggle when you tilt the pan back and forth.
- Allow the quiche to cool for 15 minutes before slicing and serving. If you used a quiche pan with a removable bottom, carefully slide the quiche out of the pan and transfer it to a cake plate. Enjoy!

Emma, I’m so happy to hear this! Thank you for sharing your success with this yummy recipe.
Sooooooo good. And easy. This recipe gave me the confidence to make some really great food. Thank you!
This is soooo good; very quick, light, & flakey! Try her mini quiche recipe too! Delicious! I am not one to make my own crust for anything; you all, this was so stinkin’ EASY!
Hooray! Thank you Adrienne. I’m so happy you love this easy recipe. Recently, I made several for a baby shower. When served on cake stands they look super special. 🤩
I had to improvise with a few ingredients and this was still the best quiche I’ve ever had!
Precooked crust for 10 minutes as I called for with my formerly favorites quiche. I sautéed the spinach, onion, garlic, salt, pepper in olive oil. Plans changed and I didn’t need the quiche that day so everything went into the fridge for a few days. Day of eating, I added eggs, fat free half and half & brick of Swiss cheese in blender (only because that’s what I had on hand). Once cheese was shredded, I threw in drained/blotted sundried tomatoes and blended at a low speed (I would chop more next time). Put spinach mix in bottom of crust, poured egg mix on top and baked. I didn’t have nutmeg. With my substitutions it was delicious so I’m sure the original is even better! I put the actual ingredients on my shopping list because I can’t wait to make this again! Thanks for sharing!
I have made this recipe one time and it was delicious! Would like to make again today but I only have frozen spinach. How would I adjust the amount of spinach?
Hello Nancy! Here’s a great resource for “How Much Spinach”: https://www.tasteofhome.com/article/how-much-spinach/
This recipe looks great, but when exactly do you add the sun-dried tomatoes? I see it in the list of ingredients but not in the steps to assemble. I presume it’s added with the spinach mixture but wanted to mention that.
I have never thought about putting sun dried tomatoes in a quiche. Brilliant! Thanks, can’t wait to try it!
This looks delicious. I would love to make it to try it one day.
This was so good, the sundried tomatoes really made the flavor pop. I will definitely make again
Another great quiche recipe! I have to admit that I love to sleep in on the week end so, I made your quiche for dinner!

This is so beautiful that I’d be scared to eat it, who doesn’t love quiches. This looks very delicious.
I had this quiche at a baby shower recently & it was DELICIOUS! I begged for the recipe & they sent me this, but I’ve read the whole thing and there is no place in the instructions where you say when to add the sundried tomatoes…? Also, if I have the kind in oil, do I drain them? Please help – I want to make this for an event tomorrow!
Hello Rachel! Thank you so much for asking me about this. I revised the instructions to include the addition of the sun-dried tomatoes to the mixture. I’m so happy that you loved this recipe. Have a wonderful time at tomorrow’s event!
I LOVE quiche! Although, I’ve never actually made it before. Your recipe sounds easy enough, although I do have to ask. How does one tent foil so the crust doesn’t cook too fast?
Saved for later on Pinterest. Yum Yum!
This has reminded me that I haven’t had quiche in ages. I need to remedy that. This looks like something I’d gobble right up.
