Vegetable and Cheddar Quiche in Air Fryer
A tender and quick quiche with fresh vegetables and cheddar, cooked in the air fryer.
🥘 Ingredients
butter — 150 g (5.3 oz)
all-purpose flour — 300 g (2.4 cups)
eggs — 4
salt — a pinch
small green zucchini — 1
small yellow zucchini — 1
carrot — 1

cherry tomatoes — 10

👨🍳 Steps
11. In a large bowl, mix the cubed butter with the flour. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until you get a coarse crumb texture. Add a pinch of salt and one egg, then quickly knead until the dough comes together. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
22. Using a mandoline, slice the green zucchini, yellow zucchini, and carrot into very thin rounds (about 2-3 mm).
33. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle larger than the quiche pan. Place it in the pan, press well on the edges, and prick the bottom with a fork.
44. Arrange the cheddar slices evenly over the dough, then place the vegetable rounds and whole (or halved) cherry tomatoes on top.
55. In a separate bowl, beat the remaining 3 eggs together with the cream, oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
66. Pour the egg and cream mixture evenly over the vegetables, making sure it reaches all corners.
77. Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (350°F).
88. Place the quiche pan in the air fryer basket and cook for 30–35 minutes, until the surface is golden and the filling is set (test with a knife – it should come out clean).
99. Let the quiche cool in the pan for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, with a green salad.
