Can I use milk instead of half-and-half for quiche?
Heavy Cream and Milk – For the best tasting quiche, use a combination of whole milk and heavy cream. (Or simply use half-and-half.) Using just heavy cream produces an overly thick filling. Whole milk is great, but a combo of heavy cream and milk is better.
What can I use instead of half-and-half in quiche?
You can also use skim milk to make half-and-half. Instead of using equal parts of milk and cream, use 2/3 cup of low-fat milk and 1/3 cup of heavy cream to make a seamless substitution. Another suitable swap for half-and-half is evaporated milk.

Do you have to pre cook a quiche?
You only need eggs and cream and either a homemade or store-bought pie crust. Most other quiche ingredients are items you probably have in your refrigerator, such as cheese, bacon or broccoli. If you’re using frozen broccoli, it’s usually not necessary to pre-cook it before you make your quiche.
