A crustless quiche is our favorite brunch hack. It\u2019s just as impressive as any quiche recipe, but without all the fuss of making, rolling and parbaking a crust along with it. Who\u2019s got the time, anyway?<\/p>\n

Going crustless doesn\u2019t sacrifice any of the flavor. A crustless quiche still has that gorgeous, baked custard texture that\u2019s studded with all your favorite mix-ins. And, since this is a base recipe, you can customize it with your favorite meats, vegetables and cheeses so it\u2019s uniquely yours every time you bake it.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the difference between a crustless quiche and a frittata?<\/h2>\n

The difference between a crustless quiche and a frittata lies in their cooking methods and milk ratios. Frittatas typically start cooking on the stovetop and are finished in the oven. Quiches (with or without a crust) only bake in the oven.<\/p>\n

Quiches are a bit more custardy in texture, too, thanks to the addition of milk. Frittatas are a bit eggier in texture as they either have a relatively little amount of milk or even no milk at all. In fact, most of our frittata recipes<\/a> do not contain milk, but they may use a little cheese!<\/p>\n
