Steps
- 1
Put all bread ingredients into a bowl and mix either with your mixer on a low setting with dough hook attachment or by hand
- 2
Dough should be kneaded for at least 5 minutes in machine or 10 minutes by hand (stretching and folding to activate the gluten)
- 3
Cover and leave in a warm place for at least an hour
- 4
Make the pastry for the quiche
- 5
Put flour and salt in a mixing bowl and rub the butter in to form a breadcrumb appearance
- 6
Add cold water a tablespoon at a time and bring together in the bowl (I use a butter knife to cut and stir as pastry benefits from lack of touch)
- 7
Wrap pastry in cling film and put in the fridge for an hour
- 8
Gently fry the chopped bacon and onions, then leave to cool
- 9
Turn your mixer back on to knock back the dough or knead again for 5 minutes to squish out the air bubbles. Place in a loaf tin, slash the top and sprinkle with flour. Put back in a warm place for half an hour to rise again
- 10
When you are ready to start baking preheat the oven to 200ºC gas 6
- 11
Roll out your pastry quite thinly (about 1/8 inch) to fit a 6" loose bottomed tin. Grease tin, place pastry snuggly in base and up the sides then trim the edges
- 12
Set aside leftover pastry
- 13
(If you are using a glass or ceramic flan tray you will need to blind bake your pastry for 20 minutes)
- 14
Place onion/bacon mixture in base
- 15
Mix together eggs, milk and seasoning and pour into quiche
- 16
Sprinkle cheese over top (I add a sliced tomato)
- 17
Now roll out your leftover pastry and cut it rounds to fit a cupcake/muffin tray (shallow is best for tarts)
- 18
Fill with whatever you like - remember jams etc expand whilst cooking so don't overfill
- 19
Put bread on top shelf, quiche on middle and tarts on bottom
- 20
After half an hour remove bread and tarts and move the quiche to top shelf for a further 10 minutes
- 21
Turn bread out immediately or steam will give you a soggy bottom! To test bread is cooked through, tap the bottom and it should have a hollow sound. Leave on a rack to cool (for as long as you can resist)
- 22
Remove tarts from tin after 10 minutes, especially if jam has bubbled over, just give time for the jam to harden a little a it will be to fluid at first
- 23
Remove quiche and cool in tin
