Easy Sausage Quiche is easy to make & devour. We make this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Who would have thought it’d be one of my family’s favorites?!
This Easy Sausage Quiche is a delicious household staple. It’s fun and easy to bake, especially on cold wintry days! It’s perfect for potlucks, family gatherings, and every meal!
My kids seriously love quiche and will eat it for any meal. I only recently discovered this after moving next door to the “Quiche Queen” Jill. She makes quiche all the time for dinner, and since my Jersey eats dinner there at least once a week, I have heard rave reviews. Jill, a working, single mom, told me how easy it was for her to make quiche for dinner and that she loves the simplicity of it. Her kids love it, too and obviously, Jersey does as well.
What to serve with quiche?
I love making this with a few healthy sides for a complete meal.
- Apple Walnut Salad
- Banana Blueberry Muffins
- Pumpkin Oat Breakfast Cookies
- Blueberry Banana Muffins
- Berry Fruit Salad
- Lemon Poppyseed Fruit Salad
- Coffee Cake
Once I figured out how much my kids love quiche, I took Jill’s lead and started making quiche for dinner. The best part about this, is I make three at a time, so the leftovers make a great breakfast or lunch, and the kids love it.
Once I started making it for dinner and found it easy, it quickly became a weekly thing. Now, because we have a large family, I always make 2-3. Because of the leftovers, as I mentioned, and two, it isn’t that much harder. I have two meals ready in less than an hour with a prep time total of 20 minutes.
We are now on a quiche streak and have more of our favorite recipes coming up. But since sausage was the first one we made, it’s the first to be shared. If you want to make the crust from scratch (I totally recommend it), try My Favorite All-Butter Pie Crust (from Crazy For Crust).
So cheers to great new neighbors who share their to-go-to meals, and their home and make friends that will last a lifetime. So enjoy this Easy Sausage Quiche from our oven to yours. XOXO San
How do you make Easy Sausage Quiche?
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Roll out pie crust into pie pan.
Top pie crust with sausage, cheese, and onion. Mix the sausage, cheese, and onion in a medium mixing bowl and then throw into the pie crust. I prefer to layer it – one less dish to wash.
Mix the eggs and half and half in a bowl with seasonings, and pour the egg mixture over the toppings in the pie crust.
- Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then reduce heat, leaving the pie in the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and bake for 35 minutes.
- When it is done, the top of the quiche will begin to turn a nice golden brown.
Remove from oven and allow to sit 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes
Very tasty and healthy breakfast! Definitely making again
This is the second time I’ve made this recipe for my husband (he’s a finicky eater), and both times it was a Big hit!! Thank you for sharing this recipe! I look forward to adding it to the regular rotation.
Hi!
Can this be cooked and frozen?
I have never tried that, but I do not see why not, just make sure to seal properly to avoid freezer burn.
This is my families all time favorite breakfast food. It is so good!!
Sounds incredibly delicious! Need to make this soon!
This recipe was really good. Oven time was perfect. Mine was very sausage heavy. I ended up using 6 eggs. Next time I’ll definitely put less sausage. I added peppers and mushrooms sautéed with the onions. Great recipe!
Can this be made with flaky pastry? I have some in the freezer.
Yes, my sister makes all her quiches that way and it is so good.
Thank you,
going to try it for tea tonight
making this quiche right now I can’t wait to eat it the recipe is so easy thank you for sharing!!
You’re very welcome!
My husband loved this. I used hot breakfast sausage. And the second time I made it, I cooked the onion with the sausage. My husband liked it better that way. Will definitely keep it in y rotation.
A delicious and hassle-free recipe that combines the savory goodness of sausage with the rich and creamy texture of quiche. Quick to prepare, this dish is perfect for busy mornings or as a savory option for brunch. Enjoy the simplicity without compromising on flavor – a delightful treat for any mealtime
I used Italian sausage, leeks, fresh garlic and spinach, upped the half and half by half a cup (lol) and used an extra egg since I had extra filling, added a splash of Sriracha and a tsp of Dijon along with some salt and pepper, extra sharp aged cheddar with a large pinch of shredded Parmesan, just over a cup for each pie, and two pre-made frozen small deep dish pie shells. Smells like heaven up in here. Easy and quick to put together. Can’t wait to taste it. Thanks for sharing your recipe .
Love these suggestions. Thank you for sharing.
This Easy Sausage Quiche sounds like a perfect family favorite, with simple ingredients and easy preparation! It’s great for any meal, from breakfast to dinner, and even makes tasty leftovers.
