Method
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the sliced zucchini, onion, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
Stir in the crumbled goat cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the sautéed zucchini, onion, and garlic evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the vegetables.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Ensure the pie crust is properly chilled before using it to prevent it from becoming too soft or breaking easily.If you're short on time, you can use a store-bought pie crust instead of making one from scratch.Sauté the zucchini, onion, and garlic until they are just tender, avoiding overcooking to maintain their texture.Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes after baking before slicing to ensure it sets properly and doesn't fall apart.Serve the quiche warm or at room temperature for the best flavor and texture.
