Ingredients

Fathead Crust

  • 2 Cups Shredded Mozzarella
  • 1 Cup Almond Meal or Almond Flour
  • 1/2 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 Egg

Filling

  • 10 Pieces Green Asparagus (8 for topping, 2 for filling)
  • 6 Eggs
  • 200 grams Yogurt
  • Parsley (to taste)
  • 1 Camembert Cheese


Instructions

  1. Prepare Fathead Dough: Heat a pot on medium heat. Add shredded mozzarella and let it completely melt, stirring occasionally with a spatula to prevent sticking.
  2. Add Almond Flour and Garlic Powder: Once the mozzarella has melted fully, add almond meal and garlic powder. Knead the mixture with the spatula until thoroughly combined into a dough.
  3. Incorporate Egg: Turn off the heat and add the egg to the dough. Continue kneading with the spatula to incorporate the egg fully and form a cohesive dough.
  4. Make Filling Mixture: In a bowl, combine 6 eggs, 200 grams of yogurt, and parsley using a hand mixer until smooth and well blended.
  5. Add Asparagus to Filling: Chop 2 pieces of green asparagus and mix them into the egg and yogurt filling with a spatula.
  6. Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 190°C (370°F) in preparation for baking the quiche.
  7. Prepare Baking Dish: Lightly oil a 10-inch quiche casserole dish to prevent sticking.
  8. Shape Crust: Spread the fathead dough evenly throughout the casserole dish and up the sides using oiled hands or the base of a small oiled mason jar.
  9. Poke Holes: Use a fork to make small holes throughout the crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
  10. Add Filling: Pour the prepared filling mixture into the crust evenly.
  11. Top with Asparagus and Cheese: Cut the remaining 8 asparagus pieces in half and arrange them on top of the filling. Tear the Camembert cheese into pieces and distribute evenly over the asparagus and filling.
  12. Bake: Place the assembled quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes until the crust is golden and the filling is set.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond meal with almond flour if preferred.
  • Ensure the mozzarella is shredded finely for easier melting.
  • Use full-fat yogurt for best texture and flavor.
  • Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes before slicing for cleaner cuts.
  • Parsley can be adjusted to taste or substituted with other herbs like chives or dill.
