If you love quiche—or can’t resist a hot, cheesy spinach artichoke dip—you’re going to adore this Spinach Artichoke Quiche. It’s comforting, simple, and built from pantry staples, making it the perfect busy-day meal.

Why You’ll Love This Quiche
This recipe combines everything you love about classic spinach artichoke dip with the ease of a no-fuss quiche. A frozen pie crust keeps things simple, while a mix of sharp, flavorful cheeses takes it over the top. Whether you’re serving brunch, lunch, or a light dinner, this quiche always wins people over.
Choose Bold, Flavorful Cheeses
When cooking with cheese—especially in a creamy custard—it’s best to reach for varieties with a stronger flavor. Milder cheeses can get lost, but aged options like sharp cheddar, Gruyere, or Parmesan shine through beautifully.
- Mild cheddar: aged 2–3 months
- Sharp cheddar: aged 6–9 months
- Extra sharp: aged 18–24 months
Any of these will give your quiche fantastic depth.
Quiche: The Ultimate Flexible Meal
One of the best things about quiche is how endlessly customizable it is. Go all-veggie with onions and herbs, or make a heartier version with ham. This spinach artichoke version is a great meatless option—so good it may even convert your most devoted carnivores! I often lean on quiches when I’m planning meatless meals during the week.
Make It Easy with a Store-Bought Crust
Quiche shouldn’t feel complicated, and a pre-made crust is a total time-saver.
- Frozen crusts bake beautifully (Marie Callender’s is a favorite).
- Refrigerated crusts work too.
- No blind-baking, thawing, or fussing required.
Tip: Transfer the frozen crust into your own pie plate before filling for better support and a nicer presentation.
Tips for Perfect Quiche Every Time
- Use enough eggs to create a sturdy but tender custard—about 4–6 for a 9-inch pie.
- Remove excess moisture from spinach and artichokes to avoid a soggy quiche.
- Bake until fully set: the center should be risen, lightly browned, and not wobbly.

- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Set to 400°F.
- Mix custard: Whisk eggs in a large bowl until smooth. Whisk in the milk or cream, then stir in both cheeses.

- Assemble: Pour the filling into the frozen pie crust.
- Bake: Bake for about 50 minutes, or until the center is fully set and lightly browned. A toothpick inserted into the middle should come out clean.

Notes & Storage
- Freezer-friendly: Quiche freezes beautifully—make two and freeze one for later.
- Refreezing crust is fine: If you’re using a frozen crust, it’s perfectly acceptable to refreeze once filled and baked.
