This easy air fryer quiche skips the pie crust in favor of a burrito-size tortilla for a crisp, golden shell that's ready in minutes. Filled with Nellie's Free Range Eggs, your favorite veggies, and a little cheese, it's an easy breakfast, brunch, or meal prep recipe that's endlessly customizable.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 325°F.
  2. Lightly grease an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray or butter.
  3. Press the tortilla into the pan, gently folding the edges as needed to create a crust.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the Nellie's Eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  5. Sprinkle the cheese and your chosen fillings evenly into the tortilla crust.
  6. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings.
  7. Carefully place the pan into the air fryer basket.
  8. Air fry for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center and the tortilla is golden and crisp around the edges.
  9. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.

Useful Tips

  • Avoid watery vegetables like fresh tomatoes or mushrooms unless they've been cooked first.
  • Mix and match fillings to use up leftover vegetables or cooked meats already in the refrigerator.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes to crisp the tortilla again.

Nellie's Tip 💜☀️

For the best texture, layer the cheese and fillings into the tortilla first, then pour the eggs over the top. This helps everything stay evenly distributed as the quiche cooks.
