Making quiche in air fryer is ideal when you want a simple method that doesn’t require heating the entire oven. The airfryer cooks the filling evenly while giving the pastry a lovely golden finish. Quiche in air fryer also takes less time than baking conventionally, making it perfect for busy days or smaller portions. Plus, you can customise the filling easily for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Step 1
Prepare the pastry base:
Use a store-bought shortcrust pastry or make your own. Roll it out and press it into a greased tart tin that fits in your airfryer basket. Trim the edges neatly.
Step 2
Add the filling:
Whisk together eggs, cream or milk, salt and pepper. Add your favourite fillings like cheese, ham, spinach, mushrooms, or tomatoes. Pour the mixture into the pastry case.
Step 3
Cook the quiche:
Preheat the airfryer to 160°C. Place the quiche in the basket and cook for 15–18 minutes until the filling is set and the top is lightly browned. Quiche in air fryer should jiggle slightly in the centre when done.
Step 4
Cool and serve:
Let the quiche rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Quiche in air fryer is delicious hot or cold, perfect for picnics, brunch, or lunchboxes.
When making quiche in air fryer, avoid overfilling the case to prevent spillage. Using a ceramic or metal dish works best for even heat distribution. Line the pastry with baking paper if needed to avoid sticking. You can also make crustless quiche in air fryer for a lighter option. Leftovers keep well in the fridge and can be reheated in the airfryer for a few minutes.
