Air Fryer Bacon and Zucchini Quiche

A savory air fryer quiche with crispy bacon, tender zucchini and melty cheese in a golden crust — brunch-worthy but easy enough for any day. The air fryer bakes it to a set, custardy center without heating the whole oven.
Serve it warm or cold, for breakfast, lunch or a light dinner with a salad. It reheats beautifully for meal prep.
Ingredients
Instructions
Cook the filling
Air fry the chopped onion and bacon at 375°F for a few minutes, then add the zucchini and cook until softened. Set aside.
Make the custard
Beat the eggs with the milk, salt and pepper.
Assemble
Line a pan with the dough. Add the bacon-veggie filling and cheese, then pour over the egg custard.
Air fry
Air fry at 375°F for about 18–22 minutes, until the center is just set and the top is golden.
- Pre-cook the watery vegetables so the quiche doesn't turn soggy.
- Don't overfill — leave room so the custard doesn't overflow.
- The center should jiggle slightly when you pull it; it sets as it cools.
