Small Vegetable Quiches

Ingredients

• 300 g low‑fat quark
• 1 tsp sugar
• 600 g flour
• 2 packets baking powder
• 4 tbsp oil
• 8 tbsp water
• 12 tbsp milk
• 1 tsp salt
• 4 chicory heads
• 2 red bell peppers
• 2 carrots
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tsp thyme
• Salt
• freshly ground pepper
• 300 g low‑fat quark
• 2 eggs (medium)
• 200 g Edam cheese

Instructions

1. 1.

   First, clean and slice the chicory into strips. Quarter the peppers, clean, rinse, and cut into strips. Peel and grate the carrots. Heat olive oil in a pan. Sauté the vegetables for 5 minutes, stir in thyme, season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat. Beat quark with eggs and fold into the vegetable mixture; taste again.

2. 2.

   Combine all dough ingredients in a bowl. Knead with a hand mixer’s beaters until smooth. Divide the dough into eight pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and roll out on a floured surface into round discs. Press the center slightly with your palm.

3. 3.

   Place four discs side by side on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the vegetable‑quark mixture over the discs, grate Edam cheese on top, and sprinkle. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C (gas: level 3–4, fan: 180 °C) for about 20–25 minutes.
