This Easy Creamy Vegan Spinach & Mushroom Quiche is so easy to make and packed with delicious flavour. It’s the best thing for a picnic or brunch and you’ll love the combination of spinach and mushrooms!
I know, that a lot of people think it’s super complicated to make a quiche, especially a vegan one. But this recipe will just prove to you how easy it actually is!
This vegan quiche is actually healthier than non-vegan quiches, because non-vegan quiches tend to contain double cream which is loaded with saturated fat and it’s super high on calories, of course.
I used to love quiches, but as you already know, the base is made out of dairy butter, and the filling – with eggs. So definitely not vegan. So, why not make a vegan quiche? I have to say, it really doesn’t matter if it’s vegan or not, it really tastes the same. That’s what I love about veganism, you could pretty much make a vegan version of anything, that tastes just the same.

- Prepare your filling: Add the tofu, cornstarch, nutritional yeast, turmeric, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and black salt (aka kala namak) into your food processor. Process until well mixed. Add the soy milk and process again until it reaches a smooth consistency. Set aside.
- Add the olive oil to a pot along with the chopped onion and crushed garlic and sauté until the onions are softened.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté with the onions until the mushrooms are softened.
- Add the chopped baby spinach and sauté until just wilted.
- Now add in your tofu mix from the food processor and fold it in with the mushrooms and spinach.
- Add the filling to your pie crust and smooth it down evenly.
- Place it into the oven and bake uncovered for 40 minutes until firm and golden on top.
