Place oven rack in the middle position of the over; place a cookie/baking sheet on the rack; preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Take pie crust out of the freezer; let it stand for 10 minutes. Prick crust 25 times with a fork. Place pie crust on the preheated cookie sheet in the oven. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until light golden brown.
While it bakes, heat oil in 10 inch skillet over medium heat; add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent and edges begin to brown, about 6-8 minutes. Add onions, broccoli florets and cheese to the bottom of the pre-baked pie crust.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, yolks, half-and-half, salt and pepper until combined; pour over pie crust. Bake quiche on the cookie sheet 35-40 minutes or until quiche is set and a knife inserted in center comes out clean.
Move quiche to wire rack; let cool 15 minutes before serving.
