- Crumble the feta cheese onto the bottom of the crust.
- Pour the olive oil into a saucepan and when it is heated, add spinach and cook until wilted.
- Spread the spinach over the feta cheese.
- Beat the eggs, garlic, and creme fraiche together.
- Pour over top of the feta cheese and spinach.
- Place cherry tomatoes on top of the quiche.
