Let’s cook

At a glance

You're building a homemade crust from scratch with oats and rye flour, then filling it with a savory egg mixture loaded with fresh broccoli, grated carrot, and tangy cheese. The baking is straightforward and takes about 25 minutes total, though you'll need to pause halfway through to add the gorgonzola for those melty pockets of flavor.
