Recipe's preparation

    Method
  1. In a medium bowl, coat the cubed pumpkin in the oil, lay out evenly on a baking tray lined with baking paper then place in a preheated oven at 225°C until roasted and slightly brown (approx. 20-25mins). Set aside and allow to cool. When in season and Australian, I use fresh asparagus instead of pumpkin. Just chop to the same size as other ingredients and add raw.   To grate the cheese in your Thermomix place cubed chunks of cheese into Thermomix bowl with MC for 17sec | speed 5. Place in a separate bowl and set aside, clean/dry bowl and blade.   Place cream cheese in the bowl without MC for 2mins | 40°C | speed 4, scrape down side of bowl. While doing 1min | speed 5 add lumps of butter then 2mins | speed 3. Add flour to bowl with MC for 2mins | Dough mode

  2. Take out small handfuls of mixture and press into baking tin or in my case 12 single serve tart tins. Start filling edges first then fill in base, use sparingly if you have left over you can always top up after. You are after a thin layer of mixture that you can't see through. (Allow roughly 30 to 45mins to press the mixture into the individual tins)

     

  3. Divide onion pumpkin bacon tomatoes and cheese evenly across base/bases. 

  4. Place egg, milk, mayo, flour, salt and pepper into bowl (I don't bother to clean between, but feel free) 30sec | speed 6 then pour evenly between tart tins.

  5. If being served that day:Place in hot oven at 225°C for 10mins then drop temp to 180°C for 15mins or until centre is cooked (centre not jiggly) and quiche/base is nicely browned. Allow to cool for 10mins, then remove from tin and allow quiches to cool further on a cooling rack.If preparing a day or two ahead: Place in hot oven at 225°C for 8mins, drop the temp to 180°C for 10mins or till centre is cooked (centre not jiggly) and quiche is slightly browned. Allow to cool for 10mins, remove from tin and allow quiches to cool completely on a wire rack. Place in an airtight container in the fridge; reheat in a hot oven at 200°C for 10mins.

     

    I have served this to Coeliacs and non Coeliacs, and no one suspects its Gluten Free.

     

    They are delicious..... Enjoy

Tip

I have not personally tested this with Gluten containing Flour, as I serve it to everyone and it is complemented regardless. If you try it with normal flour I'd love to hear your feed back, thanks for checking my recipe out......

    Made these on the weekend. Even though the pastry was very fiddly and the ratio of pastry to filling was a bit out, they were delicious. My lunch guests loved them and the recipe made heaps. Plenty for lunches the week 😚

    Best ever quiche recipe. This has taken over my 'go to' quiche. Everyone loves the pastry  (and I have to admit great nervousness the first time I made it). A huge hit with friends and family.

    Made this for dinner tonight and it was a winner! Was a little worried about the pastry with how fluffy it was but it turned out delish.. I had way too much egg mixture for my quiche so will probably half next time but very yum! Thanks for sharing!!
