Grüner Spargel Quiche mit Tomaten

June 10, 2026

This green asparagus quiche is my favorite quiche recipe for spring and summer. I bring it to almost every barbecue or family gathering—it tastes great hot or cold, is easy to prepare ahead of time, and is always a big hit. I hope you have a lot of fun with this vegetarian quiche recipe ❤️

Green Asparagus Quiche – The Ingredients

Here’s an overview of the ingredients. As always, you’ll find the exact measurements at the very bottom of the recipe card:

For the crust: wheat flour , Parmesan, cold butter, egg, sour cream or crème fraîche
For the filling: green asparagus, cherry tomatoes, garlic, eggs, cream, Parmesan
Spices & herbs: salt, pepper, nutmeg, basil
Tip: Crème fraîche works just as well as sour cream, and you can substitute grated mountain cheese for Parmesan. If you like it spicier, you can add some lemon zest and/or chili flakes.

Step-by-step instructions

Step 1: Prepare the dough
Quickly knead the flour, Parmesan, butter, egg, and sour cream into a smooth dough. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for about 1 hour.
Step 2: Prepare the vegetables
Trim or snap off the woody ends of the green asparagus. Blanch in boiling water for about 5 minutes, then rinse under cold water. Cut the tomatoes in half, chop the basil, and peel the garlic.
Step 3: Prepare the baking dish
Preheat the oven to 220°C (top and bottom heat). Grease a quiche or tart pan and dust it with a little flour.
Step 4: Roll out the dough
Roll out the chilled dough to a thickness of about 3–4 mm, place it in the pan, and form a rim. Prick the bottom several times with a fork.
Step 5: Top the crust
Arrange the asparagus spears and tomato halves evenly on the crust.
Step 6: Prepare the filling
Whisk the eggs with the cream and Parmesan. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Stir in the basil and finely chopped garlic.
Step 7: Bake the quiche
Pour the mixture evenly over the vegetables. Bake in a hot oven for about 30–35 minutes, until the top is golden brown.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Recipe

How long does the quiche last?
When stored in the refrigerator, the quiche will keep for about 2–3 days. Reheat it briefly in the oven before eating, or enjoy it cold.
Can I freeze the quiche?
Yes, let it cool completely after baking, freeze it in portions, and reheat it in the oven as needed.
What sides go well with an asparagus quiche?
A fresh leafy salad with a light dressing or herb-flavored quark are excellent accompaniments to the quiche.

Replace the butter with margarine and the egg in the crust with plant-based yogurt or water. Replace the cream with oat cream. You can find a great example here: Vegan Quiche with Vegetables – Zucker & Jagdwurst.

Tips & Variations

Cheese Alternatives for the Filling: Instead of Parmesan, you can also use feta or goat cheese to give the quiche a special twist.
Dough alternative: For a quicker option, store-bought puff pastry from the refrigerated section works well. I personally love having Parmesan in the dough, but you can leave it out entirely if you prefer.
Additional Ingredients: Pine nuts or sun-dried tomatoes can add extra flavor and texture.
