Bisquick Quiche
This recipe is easy because it doesn’t have a classic crust but it’s so easy to make and so delicious, you’ll probably find that you don’t even miss it! Trust me, crustless quiche can be just as amazing as classic quiche.
Traditionally, quiche is a French tart filled with eggs, cream, cheese, and other ingredients. But the Bisquick version is a very simplified version of the classic! Back in the 1970s, Bisquick started promoting a recipe known as the “Impossible Quiche.”
Why It’s Called the Impossible Quiche
Impossible Quiche got its name because it seemed impossible that something so easy could taste so good. You mix all the ingredients together, pour them into a pie dish, and bake.
There’s no need for rolling out dough or pre-baking a crust like you have to do with traditional quiche recipes require. Instead, Bisquick’s special blend allows the batter to form its own crust as it bakes.

Preparation
For this recipe, you’ll need to shred your cheese if you don’t purchase pre-shredded. But if you’re changing up some of the ingredients, you may need to do some more prep work. Here are some general instructions for common quiche ingredients:
- Cook Bacon or Dice Ham
- Ham: For ham, all you have to do is dice it into small cubes. You can use pre-cooked ham to save time.
- Bacon: If you’re using bacon, start by cooking it until it’s crispy. You can fry it in a pan or bake it in the oven. Once cooked, let it cool slightly, then crumble it into small pieces to put in the quiche.
- Chop Vegetables
- If you’re adding vegetables to this easy quiche recipe, you’ll want to be sure to prepare them before adding them to the mixture. Whether you’re using onions, bell peppers, spinach, or any other veggies, make sure to chop them into bite-sized pieces. If using onions or mushrooms, consider sautéing them for a few minutes to soften and enhance their flavors.
- Shred the Cheese
- While pre-shredded cheese is convenient, shredding your own cheese makes a difference. I think that freshly shredded cheese melts better when I’m cooking Use a grater to shred your choice of cheese. I use cheddar cheese in this recipe but swiss, monterey jack, mozzarella, or a blend of cheeses work well too.
Bisquick Impossible Quiche Recipe
This recipe makes about 6 servings. It takes about 10 minutes to prep and 40 minutes of cook time.
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and grease a 10 inch pie dish with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Arrange the ham and cheese in an even layer in the bottom of the pie plate.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the Bisquick, milk, eggs, salt and pepper until smooth.
4. Pour the Bisquick and egg mixture over the top of the ham and cheese.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the quiche comes out clean.
6. Allow to cool on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes.
7. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
Leftovers & Storage
You can store leftover crustless quiche in the refrigerator. You can place invidual pieces in an airtight container or wrap your pie dish completely in plastic wrap. I recommend enjoying the leftovers within 3-4 days for best flavor.
You can also freeze leftover Bisquick Quiche. Put individual pieces of quiche in freezer bags and you can store them for about a month. When you want to reheat, thaw the slice in the refrigerator and then reheat. You may lose a bit of the texture by freezing, but you can do it.
Leftover quiche reheats very well. You can reheat it in the microwave, the air fryer, or the oven. I recommend reheating individual pieces of Impossible Quiche. In the microwave, I’ll heat a piece for 1-2 minutes. The time just depends on the strength of your microwave. You can also put it in the air fryer at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
If you’re reheating an almost full quiche in the pie dish, I recommend doing that in the oven. Heat the oven to 350°F, cover the quiche with aluminum foil and bake for 15-20 minutes then check to see if it is heated through.
Variations
- Vegetables – If you love vegetables in your quiche, try some of these or your own favorites! Some of my favorites include onion, broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, bell pepper, and diced tomatoes. You can saute vegetables before you add them to the quiche mixture.
- Proteins – You can also add other proteins like crumbled bacon, sausage, chicken, or tofu.
- Cheeses – Don’t be afraid to change up the cheeses in this recipe to tweak the flavor. Try swiss cheese, mozzarella, feta, or goat cheese.
- Herbs and Spices – Fresh herbs like parsley, chives, or basil are delicious in quiche and can add additional flavor.
While my family loves the traditional ham and cheese I’ve included in this recipe, there are some other combinations that work well together:
- Spinach and Feta: Fresh spinach leaves and crumbled feta cheese.
- Mushroom and Swiss: Sautéed mushrooms with Swiss cheese.
- Bell Pepper and Goat Cheese: Sliced bell peppers with creamy goat cheese.
