Preheat oven to 450\u00b0F
Place pie shell on parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
Heat 1/2 teaspoons oil in a small skillet on medium-high heat. Add shallot and cook until translucent. Cool and distribute evenly over pie shell.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk and half the salt and pepper until combined. Stir in the cheddar cheese, spinach, and basil, and pour into the pie shell.
