What can i use instead of baking beans?...quiche lorraine going wrong!

[UmSami]

I'm trying to cook quiche lorraine and my pastry has gone wrong...no baking beans...pastry has bubbled and shrunk...please help my bacons burning lol

No idea, sorry, I only clicked on the thread because I was confused as to what you were doing with baked beans in quiche lorranie!

Maybe this bump will help.

Dried chickpeas.

Me too trillian

I always bake mine with the filling in. I've never baked it blind. Are you supposed to?

Anyway, any kind of dried bean will do.

i use scrunched up silver foil

ive heard of people using dried rice although never done it myself

i mean uncooked rice, as opposed to cooked

See, it did help!

I was wondering what you were doing with baked beans in a quiche too.

I bake my quiche with the filling in it.
