Perfect for breakfast or brunch. This vegan Just Egg quiche baked in a buttery flaky gluten-free crust filled with spinach, mushrooms and ooey gooey vegan cheese. Easy to make and delicious. 

Vegan Quiche With Just Egg is one of our favorite JUST Eggs recipes. Looking for a no crust option be sure to check out our JUST Egg Frittata.

With Shad being vegan and me being gluten-free we haven’t had a decent quiche in quite a long while. But oh happy day this recipe delivers. No hate on vegan quiche with egg replacers like tofu or chickpea but the Just Egg filling is moist, fluffy and with the onions, red peppers and onions it’s flavor packed.

What Is Just Egg Products?

Just Egg is a plant-based egg substitute product made from mung beans. It scrambles just like eggs and it also makes an excellent quiche filling. To find it, check the refrigerated section of your grocery store.

Can You Buy Gluten-Free Vegan Pie Crust?

YES! you can buy pre-made pie crust at the grocery store. Most are not vegan and gluten-free but we found one that’s sold nationwide. Wholly Wholesome. We’ve recommended there products before with our vegan gluten-free white pizza. They are certified vegan and they also have a gluten-free version. You can find them in the freezer section at many mainstream supermarkets.

Just Egg - Egg Replacer

Non Dairy Cheese - Plant-based vegan cheese

Pie Crust - Premade Vegan Gluten-free Wholly Wholesome pie crust

Storage

  • To Store. Cool before refrigerating then cover tightly with plastic wrap or foil. Store for up to 4 days.
  • To Freeze. Cool before freezing then wrap the quiche tightly in plastic wrap. Freeze quiche in an airtight freezer-safe storage bag for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
  • To Reheat. Rewarm leftovers in microwave or in oven at 350 until heated through.

Can I Make It In Advance?

An entire plant-based quiche

Yes you can. The simplest solution is to bake it a day before and reheat your slices in the microwave. Since it takes a while for the Just Egg mixture to set you really don’t want to partially bake it.

This quiche is so good and delicious it doesn’t have to be just a special occasion dish for Easter or Mother’s day. This is something you can place in heavy breakfast or brunch rotation.

These nutritional figures should be considered estimates. Varying factors such as product types or brands purchased, natural fluctuations in fresh produce, and the way ingredients are processed change the effective nutritional information in any given recipe.

    This was delicious! I’ve tried other vegan quiche recipes and this one is the best!! I didn’t have peppers so I left those out. The flavor and texture was spot on! Loved it!

    what's a good substitute for spinach?

      Hi Jo, a good substitute for the spinach would be arugula for a spicy peppery flavor. Kale and sweet peas are also great in this vegan quiche.

      Turned out perfectly! After it cools down, do I put it in the fridge?

      Hi Maria,
      Wonderful! and thank you for sharing. Your quiche can be stored two ways. First you can cover tightly with plastic wrap or foil. Or store in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the refrigerator. Warms up perfectly in the microwave.

      Does the fresh spinach need to be cooked and deveined before adding into the quiche?

    • Shad Wright

      April 16, 2022 at 2:05 pm

      Hi Joey!
      The spinach will cook inside of the quiche once it's in the oven. No need to devein it or anything.

      thanks for the great question.

      Do you saute the mushrooms before adding to the quiche?

    • Nija Clark | The Vgn Way

      April 01, 2022 at 5:33 pm

      Hi Jess,

      No need to cook the mushrooms. They will cook as the quiche is baking. Let us know if you have any more questions and hope you enjoy it!

    I hosted brunch this past weekend for a large group of friends. Everyone has different dietary restrictions so I was super happy to find this recipe, especially because it's both vegan AND gluten-free! Following your recipe, my quiche turned out PERFECT! Everyone loved it and couldn't stop raving about it! I told them all about your site. Thanks for the recipe 🙂

    We don't observe a vegan diet, but I just had to make this gluten-free quiche once I saw it. It tasted like a conventional quiche. I especially loved the meatiness the mushrooms provided.

    I haven't had quiche in so long, so thank you for this recipe. I'm a big fan of Just Egg, because it's such a great replacement and it made this recipe so easy to make. Loved the flavors and the the colorful veggies. Will definitely be making this again.

    My quiche is in the oven as I type. Super excited to try! I added smoked paprika on the top and beyond sausage in the mix.
