    A hearty vegetarian asparagus quiche with brie cheese that comes with a homemade quiche crust and the most delicious vegetarian filling!

    This flaky, creamy, and cheesy asparagus quiche is best served warm out of the oven! It makes for outstanding finger food at any party, savory brunch, or served as a weeknight family dinner alongside this green salad.

    Green asparagus, brie cheese, and fresh dill harmonize very well together and taste incredibly delicious served in a homemade quiche crust. Asparagus ensure a crunchy bite, vitamins, and all in all, a tasty filling.

    Brie Cheese makes this quiche with its rich and earthy flavor super delicious, cheesy, and creamy! If you have ever enjoyed a freshly baked warm brie cheese that’s literally melting, you know what I am speaking off – it’s a must-try, no negotiation! 😉

    If you are not that much into brie cheese, please substitute it with Gruyère cheese, Cheddar cheese, or Swiss cheese. Camembert or any other soft cheese such as goat cheese will do it too!

    The last component is the typical French quiche filling made with heavy cream and eggs, which ensures even more flavor! Vegetarian quiche couldn’t be more perfect! 

    What to love more about this asparagus quiche recipe is that you can prepare and bake it in advance – once your guests arrive, reheat it for a few minutes in the oven, and it tastes as if freshly baked!

    Homemade Quiche Crust

    Quiche should always be prepared with a homemade crust – just my two cents! Why? Homemade crust tastes better than any store-bought version – buttery, crispy, flaky! Plus, it’s not super complicated nor time-consuming.

    You can even prepare the crust one day in advance if stored in the refrigerator = even less stress when baking!

    I won’t judge if you are lazy or just not that much into baking but still want to serve a hearty meal for your family! Go for the store-bought pie crust in this case! 😉

    Asparagus Quiche Recipe – Step-by-Step

    This step-by-step guide will help you along the way – definitely recommended if you’re a baking beginner! The exact quantities and everything else you need to know for the recipe can be found in the recipe card below.

    Quiche Crust

    • Mix all-purpose flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the cold butter in pieces and mix at low speed, with the flat beater attached, until it resembles coarse crumbs.
    • Add the egg and mix at low speed until it comes together to a dough.

    • Use your hands to form it into a disc or ball. Warp with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes (up to two days).
    • Place it on a floured working surface and roll it, using a rolling pin, into a round quiche crust. Transfer into a 9-inch quiche pan and gently press the dough into place using your hands.

    Quiche Filling

    • Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).
    • Trim the rough ends of the asparagus. Set aside 6 asparagus and cut the remaining into 1-2 inch (3-5cm) pieces. Arrange the asparagus pieces and sliced brie onto the quiche crust. Decorate with the remaining asparagus.
    • Mix the eggs, heavy cream, fresh dill, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Pour the mixture over the asparagus.

    • Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven until golden brown.

    Recipe FAQ & Tips

    How long does it stay fresh? Leftovers can be stored for up to 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Store it in an airtight container, or wrap the cold quiche pan with plastic wrap/aluminum foil (easiest to reheat).

    How do I reheat quiche? Reheat for 15-20 minutes in the preheated oven at 390°F (200°C).

    Gluten-Free? Prepare the dough with gluten-free flour or use a store-bought gluten-free pie crust.

    Looking for a dairy-free quiche recipe? Go for plant-based butter, dairy-free heavy cream, and a dairy-free cheese alternative (make sure it’s one that’s melting). → I usually bake my quiche with plant-based butter & heavy cream but opt-in for regular Brie cheese. 

    Egg Replacement: The egg for the quiche crust can be replaced with 3-5 tablespoons of cold water – although the crust won’t turn out as crispy as when using an egg. Unfortunately, you can’t replace the eggs in the quiche filling as they are needed for the texture! 

    Don’t like Dill? Omit or replace with other fresh herbs of your choice.
