Pre heat your oven to 375 degrees f.
Par-bake your crust for 15-20 minutes until slighty brown. Use pie weights or aluminum foil and dried beans to help crust retain shape while baking.
Remove crust from oven, remove pie weights and dock the bottom of the pie crust with a fork. Return to oven for 5-10 minutes until the bottom of the crust is golden.
In a large bowl, mix eggs, heavy cream, milk and spices. Stir until fully incorporated. Use spoon for a creamier texture, or a whisk for a fluffier texture.
Cover the bottom of the crust evenly with cheese, ham and green onions.
Pour the egg mixture over the cheese, ham and green onions.
Turn oven temperature down to 325 degrees f and bake your quiche for 40 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperture of 170 degrees f.
Let your quiche cool and then enjoy!
