This might just be the easiest quiche crust you ever make. It takes five minutes, it’s super customizable- and it’s gluten-free, grain-free and dairy-free to boot. I’ve used it for savory and sweet (swap a tbsp of oil for maple syrup or honey, leave out the herbs and cut the salt in half) and it’s a delicious addition to any pot luck or just your weekly meal prep.
You could swap out the veggies depending on the season, but I happen to love the late Spring/early Summer combination of tomatoes and asparagus. Enjoy- and don’t forget to share with me on Facebook if you make it!

2 tsp fresh thyme, picked

2 oz (about 1/4 cup crumbled) goat cheese

3. Whisk together eggs and 2 tbsp olive oil.
4. Create a well in the center of the flour mixture, and pour in
liquid.
5. Whisk, starting from center, until mixture becomes sticky and
starts to come together. Switch to using your hands until mixture
is a pliable ball.
6. Sprinkle a firm surface with a little bit of almond flour. Roll out
ball to a thick disk. Place disk in center of tart pan and use fingers
to press out and up onto sides.
7. Bake in oven for 10 minutes. Let cool slightly before filling.
