This asparagus quiche is as delicious as it is gorgeous! It has a perfectly flaky texture combined with an insanely delicious flavor. This will be the star of the show at any breakfast or brunch!
Prepare your pie crust according to recipe directions or line a pie dish with a store-bought pie crust.
In a large skillet add 3 tablespoons of water, and the cut asparagus. Cover and cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, until the asparagus is bright green and crisp-tender. Drain the water and allow it to cool for a few minutes before placing it in the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
Once asparagus is slightly cooled, place it in the bottom of the prepared pie crust, followed by 1 cup of shredded cheese.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Pour the egg mixture into the pie crust and top with the remaining 1/4 cup shredded cheese.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until the center is set. If the crust edges begin to brown, use a pie shield or foil wrapped around the edge. Let the quiche sit for 15 minutes before slicing.
