70 minThis apple sausage cheddar quiche ditches the traditional pastry crust for something way easier: torn French bread.
Day-old bread pieces line a quiche dish, then you layer on sliced sausage and chopped tart apples before pouring over a custard made with eggs, milk, sharp cheddar, and Swiss cheese.
It bakes up into something between a strata and a quiche, hearty enough for dinner and elegant enough for brunch.
Kitchen Tips
- Use day-old French bread so it’s dry enough to soak up the custard without getting soggy
- Brown the sausage completely before adding to remove excess fat
- Let it cool for 10 minutes after baking so the custard sets and you get clean slices instead of a runny mess
