Asparagus Quiche Recipe (Herbed Keto Crust)

A few days ago I tasted a delicious asparagus quiche at a friend’s house and was inspired to make it with keto friendly quiche crust. This could find its way to your Brunch table at Easter or Mother’s Day, as asparagus comes into season in Spring.

My only warning about this asparagus quiche recipe is you may not be able to eat just one piece.

Asparagus is a springtime veggie and this could be perfect for your Easter or Mother’s Day brunch.

This is gluten free, paleo and keto friendly. Read my article below to see why it fits all three.

Ingredients for Almond Flour Quiche Crust

• Almond Flour
• Melted Butter
• Egg
• Baking Powder
• Salt
• Herbs (optional)

You will want to Pre-bake your almond flour crust for about 10 minutes. Once your quiche is baked, you will be able to cut it just like a regular crust, but cool it for about 10 minutes first.

As you can tell I used a bottomless quiche pan. I also used some parchment paper on the bottom.
