What makes zucchini quiche with Bisquick so good?
Bisquick is a handy baking mix. Sadly, too many home cooks drag it out of the cupboard only when making biscuits or quick breads. But the baking mix is much more useful than that! This is an ideal recipe to break out of your Bisquick shackles and explore another way to use it.
The Bisquick in this crustless zucchini pie recipe is crucial for providing structure and keeping things from getting too eggy.
On the taste front, the basil brings a hint of summer to the dish, while the oregano and onions contribute an earthy flavor. The layer of cheese completes the quiche with a savory richness that will satisfy everyone who tries it.

How to make crustless zucchini quiche with Bisquick
To prepare this zucchini quiche recipe:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray or oil and set aside for later.
- Crack the eggs into a large bowl, then add the basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Whisk well.
- Whisk in the whole milk and sprinkle in the Bisquick while continuing to whisk until you can't see any dry patches.
- Shred the zucchini. Use a food processor to get the best results. Place the shredded zucchini on a paper towel to soak up any extra liquid. Finely dice the onion. Reserve the veggies.
- Line the bottom and sides of the pie pan with the dry zucchini shreds.
- Spread the diced onions over the zucchini and cover it with a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Pour the Bisquick batter on top of the vegetables.
- Bake the crustless quiche until the batter cooks through, and the top turns golden brown, about 30 minutes. If you are concerned that the quiche may not be fully cooked, stick a toothpick into the center. When it comes out clean, the quiche is ready.
- Place the baked zucchini quiche on a wire rack to cool for about ten minutes before slicing.
What to serve with Bisquick zucchini quiche
Crustless Zucchini Quiche with Bisquick is great on its own, but you can try adding one of these sides to fill out the dinner:
- Bacon, Ham, or Sausage. A meaty side makes this quiche great for breakfast or brunch.
- Side salad. A simple salad with a vinegar-based dressing provides a wonderfully refreshing zing. If you don't want to stick with a classic salad of lettuce, tomato, carrots, and cucumber, why not try a three bean salad instead?
- Coleslaw. Crisp cabbage slaw is a side dish that perfectly complements the carb-heavy quiche.
- Fresh fruit. A bowl of fruit cocktail adds a sweet component and is an ideal health-conscious dessert.
How to store the leftovers
Let any extra quiche cool completely before covering it with plastic wrap and putting it in the refrigerator. The quiche should last for about three days.
If you want to keep it fresh for longer than that, you'll need to freeze it. Wrap the entire pie pan with aluminum foil before placing it in the freezer for extra protection. Thaw the quiche in the fridge before reheating.
How to reheat crustless zucchini quiche with Bisquick
The best way to warm up the Bisquick quiche is in the oven:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- If the quiche is still in the pie pan, cover the top with aluminum foil and place directly on the oven rack. Wrap individual slices in aluminum foil and put them on a baking tray.
- Heat the leftovers in the oven for about 15 minutes or until hot.
