Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made or homemade crust pie crust
- 6 large eggs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1.5 cups, shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 slices, chopped cooked bacon
- 1 cup, chopped baby spinach
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 stalks, chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon, for greasing butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with 1 tablespoon of butter to prevent sticking.
Press the pie crust into the dish, trimming any excess dough along the edges. Prick the bottom of the crust lightly with a fork to prevent puffing and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined and frothy.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped cooked bacon, baby spinach, salt, black pepper, and green onions into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the pie dish on the center oven rack and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the egg mixture is fully set and lightly golden on top. To test for doneness, insert a knife into the center—if it comes out clean, the pie is ready.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Cheesy Breakfast Pie with a side of fresh fruit or a simple salad.
