Cheese Quiche - cooking recipe

Ingredients

9 inches pie shells
1 beaten egg yolk
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or 1 1/2 cups swiss cheese
1 cup heavy cream
3 eggs
1/2 small onion, grated
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 and bake pie shell until done.
While the pie shell is still warm, brush the baked pie crust with the beaten egg yolk.
Sprinkle the crust with cheese.
Whisk together remaining ingredients in medium bowl until no streaks of egg white remain.
Pour the mixture evenly over the cheese in the pastry shell.
Bake until the filling is puffed around the sides and a knife inserted in center comes out clean (30 to 40 minutes).
Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
