Ham and Cheese Quiche
Directions
- Line a 6-qt. oval slow cooker with foil. Coat foil with cooking spray; remove foil liner from cooker. Prepare Homemade Pastry. On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a 14x11-inch oval. Transfer to foil liner and return to cooker. Fold down top edges of pastry to make an even crust that extends 1 1/2 inches up the sides. Coat a second sheet of foil with cooking spray and fit, coated side down, into crust (this will help hold up sides of pastry). Cover and cook on high 1 hour. Remove top sheet of foil.
- In a medium bowl toss together cheese and flour; spread into crust. Top with ham, roasted pepper, and green onions. In same bowl combine remaining ingredients. Pour over mixture in crust.
- Cover and cook on high 3 to 3 1/2 hours more or until a knife comes out clean, giving crockery liner a half-turn halfway through if possible. Turn off cooker. If possible, remove crockery liner from cooker. Let stand, uncovered, 30 minutes before serving.
