Equipment
01 / 05
Prepare the pie crust
Prepare a homemade or store-bought pie crust. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
02 / 05
Cook the sweet potato
Roast, boil or steam the sweet potato until very tender. In a large bowl, mash together the cooked sweet potato with the cinnamon, cumin, cayenne and salt until smooth. Set aside.
03 / 05
Blanch the collard greens
Bring a saucepan full of water to a boil. Finely chop the collard greens and add to the boiling water for just 1 minute, until wilted. Drain and rinse with cold water, then pat dry with a clean towel.
Note: Instead of collards, you can use another leafy green like kale or Swiss chard.
04 / 05
Fill the quiche
To the prepared pie crust, layer in the sweet potato, followed by the collard greens. Pour the Just Egg over everything until the crust is mostly filled. Arrange a few slices of jalapeño on top.
Note: Remove the seeds from the jalapeño to make the recipe less spicy.

Bake and garnish
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35 to 45 minutes, until the egg is set in the center. Halfway through, sprinkle on the pepitas. Use a fork or chopstick to test the center for doneness. Cool for 10 minutes before slicing, and serve with hot sauce.
