Do you often feel like a short order cook between what you and your husband eat, and what your kids will eat? I feel your pain! I have a picky one, and over the years it has been hard to make just one family meal. Now that she is older, she knows how to make scrambled eggs for herself…but still, it was a lot of work to get nutrition into her!

I think this easy quiche recipe may be the answer. The secret is the special crust…it makes everything else taste amazing!

Do you remember those delicious “Cheese It” crackers from before we were gluten free? I haven’t seen anything remotely close to those crackers in the gluten free realm, until now. Lance makes the BEST ever Gluten Free Cheddar Cheese Crackers.

Lance Snacks Gluten Free Crackers:

Lance Snacks makes a lot of delicious gluten free crackers that your whole family will love. Lance made gluten free versions of their most popular snack crackers. Do you remember Ritz Crackers? Lance has a gluten free version that tastes really close to that cracker.

They even make a gluten free version of my former favorites, peanut butter sandwich crackers and cheese sandwich crackers! They come in either snack packs so you can take them on the go easily, or a big box! (The pouches also work out perfectly for a healthier snack in your kids’ lunchboxes!

Lance Snack crackers use real peanut butter and cheese and have NO artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. They have no high fructose corn syrup or hydrogenated oils, so you can feel good about serving these crackers to your family.

These crackers are so good that I knew I had to create something special with these! In the past, I have made quiche and struck out with my picky eater. She has remained my “picky one” for years, and I really haven’t made quiche in that long.

I don’t know why I decided to try a quiche, but I am so glad I did. It must be the cheese crackers, but both of my kids devoured this gluten free quiche recipe. The hero of this easy quiche recipe is the Lance Gluten Free Cheese Crackers. These gluten free crackers make the best gluten free pie crust ever.

I wanted to make a short video to show you how easy this gluten free sausage quiche is to make. (And let your kids smash the Lance Snacks crackers. It is so much fun for them!)

What is Quiche?

One of my favorite ways to describe a quiche is to think of an egg bake or an eggier soufflé. It is usually baked open in a pie tin, without a top crust. A quiche can be filled with anything from seafood and/or meat, to vegetables and cheese. You can pick anything to go in the quiche. (I like to pick my kids’ favorite vegetables to make it easy.)

(You could make a quiche without a crust, but why do that when you have these gluten free cheese crackers?)

Fun Quiche Facts and Tips

• Quiche is freezable, so you can make an extra quiche and freeze one for another time.
• Quiche can be eaten hot or cold. For breakfast, brunch, or any meal.
• Quiche Lorraine is probably one of the most well-known quiche flavors to make.
• If your quiche turned out runny, you used too much milk and not enough eggs.
• You could make a quiche without a crust, but why do that when you have these gluten free cheese crackers?
• Yes, real men do eat quiche!! Just ask Mr. Fearless Dining!

You won’t believe how easy it is to make this easy gluten free pie crust for your quiche! There is no need to make pie crust dough for this quiche recipe when you can use these crackers! (Though if you do want to make a flaky pie crust, use this Gluten Free Pie Crust Recipe.

Once you crush up the Lance Gluten Free Cheddar Cheese Crackers and make the crust, pour in your egg mixture and add your favorite quiche fillings. Although I used scallions, tomatoes, cheese, and sausage in my quiche, you can use any fillings you like. Bacon, broccoli, anything your kids will eat! The flavors all work with these cheese crackers. Then bake.

Steps to Making a Gluten Free Quiche:

First the fun part. Put your crackers in a bag and use a rolling pin to smoosh them into crumbs.

Add the eggs, evaporated milk, and seasonings to a bowl and whisk to blend.

Pour your cracker crumbs into a bowl and add melted butter and shredded cheese. Mix well.

Add egg and mix well.

Pour the crust mixture into a greased pie tin and press down to mold to the tin.

Add the sausage onto the crust.

Add the tomatoes. Feel free to spread around the fillings so they are evenly distributed in the quiche crust.

Pour in the egg mixture over the toppings.

The quiche is ready to bake!

I added scallions and more shredded cheese on top of the quiche.

The quiche is ready to slice and serve.

Can You Use A Different Kind Of Milk In This Gluten Free Quiche Recipe?

Yes, you can use almond milk, soy milk or any other milk that you can tolerate. 

How To Make Gluten Free Mini Quiche

Making mini gluten free quiches is perfect for single servings, and it gives a fantastic presentation too. Just follow the directions to make the full-size breakfast quiche, but use a muffin tin instead of a full-sized pan. Same great taste, but smaller portions. This makes the quiche easy to grab-and-go when you need a fast breakfast too.

How Do You Know When Quiche Is Done Baking?

The easiest way to know if the quiche is done is to look at it and see if the eggs look raw. If they jiggle or move around easily when you shake it lightly, then it will need to cook a few more minutes. Another way to tell if the gluten free breakfast quiche is done is by inserting a toothpick in the center. If the toothpick comes out clear and free of eggs, then it is ready.

Can I Freeze Gluten Free Quiche?

Yes, you can freeze this quiche recipe. Place the quiche casserole into an air-tight container and freeze. When you are ready to eat, just remove from freezer and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees. Make sure it has been heated all the way through before consuming.

Here are some ways you can make your gluten free breakfast quiche extra special:

• Spinach – Add extra nutrients while enhancing the flavor.
• Onions – Grilled or fresh onions go perfectly with eggs.
• Mushrooms – Adds an earthy flavor to the dish that is amazing.
• Peppers – The texture and extra flavor of the peppers are really good.
• Ham – A very common ingredient for egg dishes and it makes sense because it is delicious.
• Bacon – Adding bacon makes it even heartier and adds a saltiness.
• Parmesan – When you sprinkle some parmesan on top it is next level good.
• Sweet Potatoes – Adds sweetness to the quiche that is mouthwateringly delicious.
