    Bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Bake 40 to 45 minutes longer or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edge of crust with strips of aluminum foil after 10 to 15 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Use 8 ounces of fresh asparagus spears (about 25) for the frozen, blanching spears first. To blanch, place spears in boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes or until bright green; immediately rinse with cold water.
  • tip 2
    Garnish servings of quiche with additional fresh dill weed.
