🧅 Pioneer Woman Sausage Quiche Ingredients

• 2 rounds refrigerated pie dough (one 14-ounce package)
• All-purpose flour, for dusting
• 2 tbsp. salted butter
• 4 oz. bulk breakfast sausage
• 1 onion, sliced
• 4 c. chopped kale
• 8 large eggs
• 1 1/2 c. heavy cream
• Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
• 2 c. grated gruyère cheese (about 7 ounces)
• Green salad, for serving

🥮 How To Make Pioneer Woman Sausage Quiche

1. Set the oven temperature to 400 ̊ F. Roll out the two rounds of pie dough into a 12-inch circle by stacking them on top of each other on a floured board.
2. Gently press the dough into the bottom of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Cut off the extra and seal the edges with a crimp.
3. In a large skillet set over medium heat, melt the butter. Cook the sausage for 2–3 minutes, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, or until it is mostly browned. Toss in the onion and cook, turning often, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until it turns golden.
4. Toss the kale into the skillet. Cook for around 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted yet crisp-green.
5. Whisk together the heavy cream and eggs; add pepper and salt to taste. Combine the sausage mixture and cheese, then whisk using a rubber spatula.
6. Set the pie crust on a rimmed baking sheet and then pour in the egg mixture. Loosely cover with foil and bake for around 45 minutes, or until the crust is slightly golden and the middle is very soft.
7. Bake, uncovered, for another 15–20 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top reaches a golden brown color. Allow rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving with salad.

💭 Recipe Tips

• Ensure the pie crust is fully sealed and not too thick to avoid sogginess.
• Pre-cook the sausage and onions for enhanced flavor.
• Don’t overcook the kale; it should be wilted but still vibrant green.
• Let the quiche rest before slicing to allow it to set properly.
