☕️ Can Quiche be Reheated the Next Day?

Although quiche is always best eaten fresh, it can totally be reheated the next day, or even up to 4 days, if being stored in the fridge.

Depending on how much time you have, and what type of appliances are available, there are a few ways to go when reheating quiche. However, the best results will always be achieved by using your oven.

Because quiche is so dense, the inside might take longer to heat compared to the outside. You can test this by sticking a knife into the middle of your quiche, then feeling the knife after pulling it out.

🍽 How to Reheat Quiche in the Oven

This is the best method if you want to recreate that "right from the oven" texture and flavor. It takes longer than the microwave, but it's worth it.

Reheating in the oven ensures an even distribution of heat, a crisp crust, and you can warm up an entire quiche or just a few slices.

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Bring quiche to room temperature while the oven preheats.
3. Cover crust with foil if it's already dark golden brown
4. Reheat for 15-20 minutes, or until the inside of quiche is 165 degrees F.
5. Remove foil and serve.

🍽 How to Reheat Quiche in the Microwave

This is the preferred method for when you are in a hurry, or you just have one slice of quiche to warm up.

One of the keys to maintaining the texture of your quiche is to use a lower power setting.

1. Bring quiche to room temperature for 20 minutes before reheating.
2. Place your quiche on a microwave-safe plate.
3. Using a low-to-medium power setting, reheat for 2 minutes.
4. Feel quiche for temperature. If necessary, heat for another 15-20 seconds (using the same power setting).
5. Rest quiche for 60 seconds, then serve.

🍽 How to Reheat Quiche in the Toaster Oven

I love using the toaster oven when I want oven-like results but just have one or two pieces of quiche to reheat.

It will be a bit faster than using the oven, and will produce a similarly flaky crust.

1. Preheat toaster oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Bring quiche to room temperature while the toaster oven preheats.
3. Cover the crust with foil if it's already dark golden brown.
4. Heat for 10-15 minutes, or until the inside of quiche is 165 degrees F.
5. Remove foil and serve.

🍽 How to Reheat Quiche in an Air Fryer

Because of its size, using an air fryer is best when you only need to reheat a few slices, not an entire quiche. It's faster than using the oven, while still doing a good job of re-crisping the crust.

1. Preheat air fryer to 300 degrees F.
2. Bring quiche to room temperature while air fryer preheats.
3. Arrange quiche slices on the rack and reheat for 4-7 minutes, or until heated through.
4. Serve warm.

🥚 How to Reheat Frozen Quiche

Reheating frozen quiche will take a bit longer, but using the oven ensures even heating, so no need to thaw it.

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Place quiche on a baking sheet and cover with foil.
3. Heat for 30-40 minutes, or until the inside of quiche is 165 degrees F.
4. Remove quiche from the oven and let it sit for 15 minutes without removing the foil.
5. Remove foil and serve.

☕️ How to Store Quiche

For proper storage, let it cool completely (this prevents a soggy crust), cover, and place in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

You can also store your quiche in the freezer: After completely cooled, wrap each slice individually in aluminum foil and then place the slices in a freezer-safe bag. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months. To thaw, place in refrigerator overnight, or reheat directly from the freezer.

👩🏼‍🍳 Expert Tips

• Allow quiche to come to room temperature before reheating.
• Preheat oven, toaster oven, or air fryer before placing your quiche inside. This will prevent your quiche from drying out.
• If crust is already a dark golden brown, cover it with foil before reheating in the oven or toaster oven.
• When using the microwave, let your quiche sit for 60 seconds before serving.
• For a hearty brunch, serve with chocolate old fashioned donuts, dutch apple cake, or french toast with caramelized bananas.
