Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Step 2

To make the crust, in a food processor, combine the cashews, coconut flour, egg whites, ghee and 1 teaspoon of the salt. Process until the cashews break down and the mixture forms into a ball.

Step 3

Remove the crust and press it evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan and press the dough up the sides of the pan. Set aside while you make the filling.

Step 4

Whisk together the eggs, almond milk, pepper and the remaining salt. Crumble the goat cheese.

Step 5

Once well whisked, stir in 3 oz of the crumbled goat cheese (about 3/4 of the cheese) and the asparagus.

Step 6

Pour the filling into the tart pan and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the middle is set.

Step 7

Sprinkle the remaining goat cheese on top of the quiche and serve.
