Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • ½ cup grated gruyere
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 large egg white

For the Filling

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 8 ounces heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 5 ounces gruyere cubed
  • 1 medium shallot

Instructions
 

  • Combine the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and shredded cheese in a large bowl and mix well to combine.
  • Incorporate the butter into the flour mixture using a fork or pastry cutter.
  • Add the egg white to the mixture, reserving the yolk for the filling, and mix to form one large dough ball. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to chill.
  • Preheat your oven to 350F. Press the chilled dough into a pie pan, going to the outer edge and up the sides. This part doesn’t have to be perfect.
  • Bake the crust for 10 minutes at 350F. Set aside to cool.
  • Create the filling by whisking the eggs and the remaining egg yolk with heavy cream and salt.
  • Sautee the asparagus and sliced shallot just until the onion is translucent and the asparagus begins to soften.
  • Place the cubed gruyere in the bottom of the cooled quiche crust.
  • Top the cheese with the onion and asparagus.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the quiche crust and bake at 350F for 45-60 minutes or until it is completely set and slightly browning. Slice and serve!
