Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
- Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Crust
- If using a store-bought pie crust, place it in a 9-inch pie dish and prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. If using homemade crust, roll it out and fit it into the pie dish, trimming any excess dough.
3. Bake the Crust
- Pre-bake the crust for about 10 minutes, or until it is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
4. Mix the Filling
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon and Boursin cheese. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, dill, salt, and pepper until well combined.
5. Combine Ingredients
- Gently fold the salmon and cheese mixture into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
6. Pour into Crust
- Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake the Quiche
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and lightly golden on top. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
8. Cool and Serve
- Allow the quiche to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. This resting period helps it set further, making it easier to cut. Serve warm or at room temperature.
