Breakfast Quiche Stuffed Bagels

Share This

When I lived in Ontario, seemingly a whole lifetime ago, we often visited my then Sister in Law in Toronto. She was married to a Jewish fellow and used to bring home the most delicious bagels from a Jewish Bagel near their house on Avenue Road. These bagels were so fresh and so tasty, they completely spoilt me for every enjoying those insipid bagels you find in the shops.  When you have tasted an authentic Jewish Bagel, there is nothing else that quite comes up to it.


One good thing to do with those store-bought bagels however that is quite delicious is to make Breakfast Quiche Stuffed Bagels. These are a brilliant way of enjoying quiche without all the faffing about of making pastry or a crust!


To do this, I slice the bagels in half through the middle and then scoop out any bread from the middles leaving a bit of a basil for the filling. I then start layering in my quiche ingredients.


I like to use some spring onions, chopped.  A cooked sausage, chopped.  Cooked bacon, chopped and of course cheese, fresh farm eggs and cream.


I layer in the onion, bacon, sausage and half the cheese and then beat the egg togeher with the cream and pour it over top, finishing it all off with the remainder of the cheese.


These then get baked until the egg mixture soufflees up into a quiche type of filling, rich and delicious.


I garnish them with some minced fresh chives.  By all means you can vary the filling ingredients.  Add chopped peppers if you like them.


Leave out the bacon or the sausage, or both and make them completely vegetarian.  Add some smoked salmon if you are so inclined and dot in some cream cheese. Garnish with some sprigs of dill.


You really can make these your own by using whatever quiche fillings you enjoy most of all. Ham and Swiss cheese is also quite nice!


Although perfectly sized for two, this recipe is very easily doubled or tripled to feed more.  This would make a great weekend breakfast when entertaining.  Add some fresh juice, coffee if you are so disposed and a fresh fruit salad and you have a breakfast fit for a King!

My husband doesn't like things really crisp, but if you do want your bagels really crisp, brush them with butter and bake them for a few minutes to crisp them up prior to filling them with your desired fillings.  I think you are really going to enjoy these!
