This easy crustless quiche recipe is made with ground beef, Parmesan cheese and broccoli. Everything comes together in 40 minutes, and the end result is a golden, crispy outer egg crust with a perfectly moist and tender inside!

Broccoli Quiche Recipe Ingredients

This keto crustless quiche recipe is totally delicious and so simple to make!

It only requires 9 ingredients to make this healthy and comforting breakfast or brunch. Most of them you'll already have in the kitchen!

Broccoli Quiche Ingredients

Eggs - make sure to use large eggs that are at room temperature.

Broccoli - chop up the broccoli florets into your desired size. The quiche works well with both bigger and smaller pieces of broccoli.

Ground beef - you can also substitute this for other meats or take it out all together. Ham, sausage and bacon are excellent choices for a broccoli cheese quiche.

Sour cream - adds extra moisture to the quiche to give it the perfect tender inner layer.

Parmesan cheese - adds a delicious savory undertone that compliments the broccoli florets. If you're not a fan of Parmesan or don't have any on hand, you can substitute it for a sharp cheddar instead.

Butter - preferably use grass-fed butter that is at room temperature.

Baking powder - works with the eggs and sour cream to create the classic quiche texture we all love.

Seasonings - you'll only need sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

How To Make Ground Beef Broccoli Quiche

Storage Tips

This easy broccoli quiche can be made ahead of time if needed, and you can warm it up in the microwave or oven.

In the fridge: Any extra or leftover quiche can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days. Store it in an airtight container and either enjoy cold or reheat in the microwave or oven. To reheat in the oven, wrap the quiche in foil and bake at 300°F/140°C until the center is hot.

In the freezer: For long term storage, you can keep this quiche in the freezer for up to 3 months. Make sure it has completely cooled to room temperature, and then wrap it tightly in foil. Place it in an freezer-safe container and place it in the freezer. When you're ready to eat the quiche, place it in the refrigerator for 24 hours to thaw, then reheat it wrapped in foil in the oven at 300°F/140°C until the center is hot.
