Preparation
-
Prepare jars
Lightly grease five oven-safe Oleni Mason Jars | 0.3 L or spray with baking release spray.
Preheat oven to 180 °C top/bottom heat.
-
Sauté vegetables
Heat olive oil in a pan, sauté onion and garlic until translucent.
Add leek and sauté for 3-4 minutes. Add kale, season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, and briefly steam until wilted.
Let cool slightly.
-
Prepare egg mixture
Whisk eggs, milk, mustard, and sage, season with salt and pepper. Fold in feta and vegetables with a dough scraper. Distribute the mixture evenly among the 5 Mason jars (about ¾ full each).
-
Bake
Place jars without lids on a baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the surface is golden brown and slightly risen. Let cool completely before sealing.
-
Prepare topping
Stir yogurt, fire ferment, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into a smooth cream. Just before serving, apply 1 tbsp per jar. Decorate with sage leaves and a little chili.
Meal Prep & Storage in Your Favorite Jar
You can bake the quiches directly in our Oleni Mason Jars. After cooling, simply seal them with the lid – this way they stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and are perfect for meal prep or on the go.
To warm them up, remove the lid and heat the quiches in the oven at 160 °C for about 10 minutes or briefly in the microwave.
It is best to store the Fire Cider cream separately in stainless steel or fresh-keeping containers or also in a Mason Jar. It is only added freshly to the warm quiches when serving – this keeps the consistency perfect and the aroma particularly intense.
