Equipment: a 10-inch quiche dish or 10-inch glass pie plate

preparation

Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.

Butter quiche dish, then sprinkle all over with bread crumbs.

Cook onions with ham in butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, about 5 minutes. Spread in dish, then evenly sprinkle cheese on top.

Whisk together eggs, yogurt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and pour over cheese. Bake until top is golden and custard is set in center, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool slightly before cutting into wedges.

Greek Yogurt

The yogurt taste is not prominent and the end result is a creamy custard without the fat of cream and whole milk. From now on I'll be using Greek yogurt in quiche.
