Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven & Prepare Crust
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
If using a frozen pie crust, let it thaw slightly before baking.
-
Place the crust in a 9-inch pie dish (if not already in one).
-
Prick the bottom lightly with a fork to prevent air bubbles.

Optional: Blind-bake the crust for 5–7 minutes for extra crispiness (cover with parchment paper and pie weights or dried beans).

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and nutmeg (if using).
-
Stir in the ricotta cheese until well combined.

Fold in the chopped spinach and shredded mozzarella.
