Ingredients

• 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
• 8 ounces Sausage (ground, mild or spicy)
• 1 piece Apple (medium, such as Honeycrisp or Gala), peeled and diced
• 1.5 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Unroll the pre-made pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess hanging over the edges. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium-sized skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the diced apple and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened. Remove and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, crumble the ground sausage and cook over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and let the sausage cool slightly.

Step 5

Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the bottom of the pie crust. Follow with an even layer of the cooked diced apples. Then add the shredded sharp cheddar cheese on top.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, black pepper, and cinnamon until smooth.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage, apple, and cheese layers in the pie crust.

Step 8

Place the quiche in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 9

Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Apple Sausage Cheddar Quiche!
