directions
- First make the dough: Combine both flours with yeast, salt and sugar in a big bowl. Add in the warm water and knead into a smooth dough.
- Cover and allow to rise in a warm place until dough has doubled (about 40 minutes).
- For the filling heat oil in a frying pan. Add in garlic and saute until slightly browned.
- Add in salad greens and saute until slightly wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface roll out dough into a circle of 26 cm/10 inches in diameter. Place this in a greased springform pan and allow to rise again covered for 10 minutes.
- Pour salad greens into crust and dot with the crumbled blue cheese. Sprinkle with sunflower seeds and parmesan cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven at 200°C/400°F for 15-20 minutes or until crust is baked through and filling nicely browned (you may need to cover the quiche after a while).
- If you like drizzle with 1 tbs of runny honey before serving.
