4. Season the mixture with pink Himalayan salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
5. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish, letting it settle naturally.
6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden.
7. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to deepen.

🔑 Pro Tips
- Whisk the eggs and cream until slightly frothy for a light, airy texture.

- Let the quiche rest for 5 minutes after baking. This ensures the flavors settle and each slice stays intact.
🚫 Common Mistakes
