👨‍🍳 Instructions

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add onion and cook for 1 minute.

Add spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to wilt, about 1 minute.

Cover skillet and cook for 1 minute more, allowing condensation to build inside the skillet.

Remove from heat, uncover, and stir.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Press pie pastry into a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie pan.

Prick bottom and sides with a fork.

Bake crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.

Remove from oven and set aside.

Combine eggs, ricotta cheese, cream, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, basil, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor.

Blend until smooth.
