  • Grease a 10-inch pie dish.

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir sliced mushrooms until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain excess liquid, if necessary; set mushrooms aside.

  • Place sour cream, eggs, Parmesan cheese, flour, cream, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and hot pepper sauce in a blender; blend until smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour egg mixture into a large bowl.

  • Stir mushrooms, spinach, and Cheddar cheese into egg mixture. Pour into prepared pie dish.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the middle of the quiche comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

Tip

Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.

This is the most amazing and delicious quiche I've ever made and I've made a ton of quiche. The only thing I changed was subbed Greek yogurt for the sour cream and included a chopped onions with the mushroom omitted the onion powder and added a tablespoon of ground mustard. A winner and a keeper for sure!! Thanks for sharing.

This is ALMOST a real 5 star recipe quite unlike any crustless quiche I've ever made. I followed the recipe exactly because I think it is unfair to rate a recipe that has been modified. It is delicious as it stands - the texture is so smooth and it is very very rich. The directions are easy to follow and it is uncomplicated to make. There were three of us at dinner and I divided it into fourths but it would easily serve six as none of us could completely finish our portions. My husband commented that it could be more colorful so I think I'll add some diced sweet red pepper to the mushrooms next time I make it. I might also use diced onion and garlic as some reviewers have suggested. Also it took mine a full hour in the oven to be ready to eat. Thanks for the great recipe; we all agreed that I should make it again soon.

Awesome. I was fridge-raiding to use up my overstock of eggs but didn't have all the ingredients so I used different cheese (mozzarella and a basil/tomato white cheddar mixed) and threw in a little Sopressa for kicks and this quiche turned out better than most I've purchased at bistros. I highly recommend trying this out and/or adding your own twist. It was easy to prepare before baking as well which is important to me.

This is FABULOUS! I'm always looking for lower/no carb breakfast casseroles & quiche's & this is perfect! I didn't use the heavy cream(not sure why it's needed) & baked it in my small 10x7 cake pan checked it at 35 min. & it was done perfectly. When I've made crustless quiche's in the past they tend to puff while baking & fall while cooling. Not the case with this one. Absolutely LOVE this!

This was delicious and easy! I subbed greek yogurt for the sour cream used fresh spinach instead and added some extra spices instead of using hot sauce. The sourness of the greek yogurt had me a bit concerned so I sprinkled just a few dashes of sugar in too. Like previous commenters I sauteed the mushrooms with minced garlic. I also used pecorino instead of parmesan because it was what I had on hand. Thanks very much!

My husband and I thought this was delicious! It was certainly easy. None of my kids would try it however but I don't know why.

This quiche was great! I substituted half a chopped onion and 2 minced garlic cloves for the onion and garlic powder and just sauteed with the mushrooms. It had tons of flavor this way! I also did not have cheddar on hand but had monterey jack so I just used that. Still great! Will try with cheddar next time.

Fantastic. I made it lower in fat and was still blown away. Omitted cream used fat free greek yogurt instead of sour cream and only had a can of mushrooms so fried them up with fresh spinach and red peppers using only Pam spray. Next time I don't think I will even use all the cheddar called for. Best quiche I ever made. You will not miss the crust.

Incredibly delicious easy to make and healthy too! Very little prep time involved as using a blender to make the egg mixture speeds up the process - - pop it in the oven and go about doing other tasks. Made changes based on suggestions by some reviewers as well as an aim to reduce the fat content and pack this already healthy quiche with more vegetables. Instead of 2 cups sour cream used 1-1/4 cups sour cream and 3/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt (6 oz. tub) based on several reviewers feeling it was a tad sour tasting. Added 1/4 red bell pepper 1 large carrot 1/4 Vidalia onion 2 cloves garlic and the entire (10 ounce) package frozen spinach. Left the egg mixture pretty much as is except for adding 1 more egg and subbing almond milk for the heavy whipping cream. Used a 9" deep dish ceramic pie baker and the dish was filled perfectly. Took 50 minutes to bake given the extra ingredients which were added. The only change next time would be to adjust the seasonings a little for our personal preferences and be a bit more liberal with the hot sauce. Thank you for sharing hrgdane and this recipe is destined to be a winner on this site.
