Making the Quiche
- Pulse flour, butter, and salt in a food processor. Add ice water until it forms a dough. Chill for 30 minutes, then roll out and press into a tart dish. Blind bake with pie weights at 400°F (200°C) for 15 minutes, remove weights, and bake 5-10 more minutes until golden brown.
- Toss butternut squash cubes and broccoli florets in olive oil. Roast at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes until the squash has slightly charred edges.
- Sauté chopped kale and minced garlic in butter until wilted. Add a splash of heavy cream and cook until thickened.
- Whisk eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and a pinch of nutmeg until smooth. Fold in the creamed kale.
- Pour the custard into the baked crust. Embed roasted squash and broccoli into the filling. Add dollops of ricotta on top. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35-40 minutes until perfectly set. Garnish with fresh thyme and coarse cracked black pepper.

Notes
Tip 1: Always blind bake the crust to prevent a soggy bottom.
Tip 2: Allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing so the custard can fully set.
