This quiche is savory but greatly balanced by the sweet apple and onion. A delicious dish for lunch or a buffet, this gorgonzola apple quiche.
This quiche is on one of the recipes which you can ask yourself in advance, what's the end result I'm going to get. Because of the unusual combination. Gorgonzola, onion, and appel weren't some of the choices I would be thinking of in advance. But this quiche is so delicious that I couldn't take just one slice. And I'm sure you're going to say the same!
This recipe is adapted from the book  Around my French Kitchen of Dorie Greenspan which contains delicious dinner recipes.
- Don't have any gorgonzola in da house? Each blue cheese can be used for this dish.
- You can also use half a red onion instead of a regular onion for a nice color effect.
- Because you fruit the onion it becomes deliciously sweet.
- This apple gorgonzola quiche can be made the day before serving. Bake 25 minutes (with stuffing) and allow to cool to room temperature. Store in the refrigerator. Warm the next day in a preheated oven by baking for 15 to 20 minutes at 390 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
- The half-baked quiche (baking the quiche with filling for 25 minutes, allow to cool to room temperature and store in the refrigerator). This can be stored for up to 2 days;
- You can freeze the half-baked quiche, allow it to cool to room temperature and wrap it well and freeze up to 1 month.
