Steps

- In a separate 4-cup measuring cup, whisk 4 whole eggs or 2 whole eggs and one carton of egg beaters. Whisk until the eggs get tiny bubbles on top.
- Whisk evaporated milk into the eggs and then add regular milk until you have 4 cups of liquid.
- When the pie shells are pre-baked, remove from oven and raise the temperature to 425ºF.
- Divide half of the dry ingredients into each shell.
- Place the dry pie shells on a heavy baking sheet or on a long strip of aluminum foil and put in center of the oven.
- Pour 2 cups of the liquid egg and milk into each shell. Note: the pies will be very full.
- Bake the quiches at 425ºF for 20 minutes.
- Lower the oven temperature to 375ºF and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove the quiche to a cooling rack. Let cool for 15 minutes, then slice into pieces and enjoy.
Tips
- If the edges of the pie shell start becoming too brown, you can wrap aluminum foil around just the edge part to keep it from burning.
- Test whether the quiche is ready by sticking a knife into the center of each pie. The knife should come out clean and dry. If it does not, put it back for another 5 minutes or so.
Warnings
- Pie will be hot when you first take it out of the oven.
- Read your pie shell label to make sure there are no trans fat ingredients.
