    Don't go crustless, use ground almonds, butter and a bit of salt instead! Yum.

    A crustless quiche sounds like a frittata to me?:confused:
    Here's a link to a recipe: http://everydaypaleo.com/2010/03/21/recipes-for-a-day-in-the-life/
    Hope that helps:)

    Not at all. I actually hate marzipan. It's just like a crumbly kind of crust. Seriously - try it. For a 20cm flan tin, use 200g ground almonds and 50g melted butter plus 1/2 tsp of salt.

    Oil the tin lightly and then press the almonds into the tin & bake blind for 10-15 mins until lightly browned. Thrown in your quiche ingredients and back in the oven for 20-30mins until it's done.

    Mmm..I think I'll be having quiche for dinner tomorrow..

    We really like crustless quiche - I make a really large cheese & bacon version that freezes well in portions for lunches and breakfasts on the go. I do occasionally make the low carb crust but replace about 50gms of the ground almonds with ground linseeds. I like the taste and it just seems a bit more robust.
    Also, for a very quick 'almost' crust, I dust the bottom of the greased tin with a layer of ground almonds, then 3/4 of the cheese, the bacon, the egg/cream mix and finally the remaining cheese.
    Oh, and I make crustless cheesecakes too - who says low carb has to be boring? :)
