This spinach mushroom quiche makes a delicious brunch or a light dinner! The buttery, flaky crust is packed with savory mushrooms and a cheesy custard.
We’re all about pie, and to us a savory pie is even more fun. Here’s one that’s become an instant favorite: this spinach mushroom quiche! The buttery, flaky crust is packed with savory mushrooms, wilted greens, onion, garlicky, and a creamy cheesy custard. Each tender bite is an explosion of flavor and textures, perfect as a savory brunch main dish or even as a light dinner! We’re already getting hungry.
This classic spinach mushroom quiche recipe is best made on a day where you have a few hours set aside. The crust is best made completely from scratch with this homemade quiche crust, but it does require 20 minutes to put together and at least 1 hour of chilling. You can also make it in advance, which shortcuts the 1 hour chill time! You can also use store-bought refrigerated pie crust for a shortcut. Here’s an overview of the time you’ll need:
| Make the homemade quiche crust (or use purchased) | 20 minutes active, 1 hour chilling for homemade (or make in advance for quicker prep!) |
| Shape the crust | 5 to 10 minutes, active |
| Refrigerate the dough | 30 minutes, inactive |
| Blind bake the dough + make the filling | 30 minutes, active |
| Bake the quiche | 40 to 50 minutes, inactive |
This spinach mushroom quiche is one of our favorite quiche recipes because of the bold, meaty flavor that comes from the mushrooms and cheese. We like using frozen spinach for quick and easy prep, but you can also substitute fresh spinach if you prefer, adding it in with the onions in Step 6 of the recipe below. Here’s what you’ll need for the filling:
Our favorite type of mushroom for cooking are cremini mushrooms, also known as baby bella mushrooms. Look for packages marked with either name at the grocery store. They’re a small mushroom with a round brown top, and their flavor is more savory and developed than button mushrooms.
The biggest key to making a great quiche is to blind bake the crust! Blind baking is baking a pastry crust without the filling first. It’s necessary for pies with a very liquid filling, since they can make the bottom crust soggy without it. Here’s what to know about how to get the perfect flaky quiche crust:
For this spinach mushroom quiche, you’ll also need a pie crust shield. This tool prevents pie crust from burning in the oven by covering just the crust, allowing the filling to bake normally. However, you don’t need to run out and buy anything: you can make your own! Here’s what to know:
This spinach mushroom quiche saves very well. In fact, it’s even better after it’s cooled to room temperature. It even tastes great cold! You can bake it in advance and reheat it as desired. Here’s what to know about making quiche in advance:
Love a good quiche? It’s the perfect easy brunch idea that everyone will enjoy and there are lots of filling flavors to choose from! Here are a few other tasty quiche recipes to try:

There’s something Lucas Sin wants you to know: Water and mushrooms aren’t enemies. “A lot of us have been told that when you process your mushrooms—when you cook them—they’re not allowed to touch a single drop of water,” says Lucas in a recent episode of Why it Works. “But in my experience, I found that not to be correct.” Not only is water not the enemy, he argues—it’s actually the key to extracting the most flavor out of your fungi.
“Mushrooms, because of their cell structure and the way this fungus is set up, in between all these fibers are big air pockets that are filled with air and, eventually, whatever liquid that it comes into contact with,” says Lucas. “That’s a lot of the reason why some people say [not to] soak them in water.”
