Quiches can be such a tricky thing to make. You need the perfect ratios and quantities otherwise your quiche has too little base or doesn’t set properly. Not to mention that sometimes the flavors disappear during cooking and all that time spent was for a bland, flavorless dish.
My whole family lives for quiche so you can imagine my frustration struggling to find a perfect recipe.
Just as I was about to give up trying, I found this incredible Bisquick Impossible Quiche recipe – it changed my life
Why is it called the Bisquick Impossible Quiche? Well, that is simple; it’s because it is impossible to believe that a quiche can be this easy, quick and still delicious!
Once again, thanks to the convenient Bisquick baking pre-mix, your cooking and baking life gets a whole lot easier.
This recipe, as I’ve already mentioned, is incredibly easy to make and doesn’t require a lot of time. Possibly the best part of the recipe is how flexible it can be.
Without affecting the egg base (the part that sets the quiche) you can substitute the bacon, cheese and onion with virtually anything you’d like.
Every time you make this recipe you can experiment with flavors. Make a classic caramelized onion quiche or spinach and feta quiche.
Or you can be a bit more daring and try a goat’s cheese and pancetta quiche with cumin and chives. Amazing, right?
Don’t go wasting your time trying to find a “from-scratch” recipe – they rarely work and you are going to waste your time, just like I always did.
This recipe is the only quiche recipe that my family uses and so should you!
How To Make Bisquick Impossible Quiche
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 10-inch pie dish with non-stick coating like spray or butter. Alternatively, you can line the dish with baking paper.
Spread the crumbled bacon, shredded cheese and diced onion over the bottom of the pie dish. Keep some bacon aside for garnish. Set aside the pie dish until needed.
In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, fine salt and freshly ground black pepper until they are well incorporated.
Add the Bisquick Original mix and slowly mix in the Bisquick until it is fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the quiche base over the other ingredients in the pie dish and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Halfway through baking, add the remaining crumbled bacon as garnish.
Once the quiche has been fully cooked, allow it to cool on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving with your favorite accompaniment.

Tips & Tricks
- Other cheeses that work amazing for quiche include crumbled blue cheese, goats cheese slices, shredded cheddar, grated parmesan, torn mozzarella pieces and virtually any other soft to semi-soft cheese.
These work best as they can become soft and melty during baking.
- Virtually any type of cooked or cured meat can also work. Some of the best meats include prosciutto, chorizo, sausages, ham, ground beef and pancetta to name a few.
Keep in mind that some meats (those that aren’t usually consumed raw like bacon and ground meat) should be cooked before adding them to the quiche base.
- Using different spices also gives you a ton of flavor options. Using cumin is one of my favorite quiche spices. Herbs are another great option, especially chives and parsley.
- Other ingredients that can be used a lot is spinach, slices and boiled potatoes and tomatoes.
Remember, there is no limit to what you can and cannot pair. Experimenting with flavors is the best way you will learn what works and what doesn’t.
