Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 premade shell (9-inch size) Pie crust
- 8 slices Bacon
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a 9-inch pie pan with the premade pie crust, crimping the edges neatly. Place the pie pan on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
Cook the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the bacon, let it cool, and crumble it into small pieces.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
Add the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top of the bacon layer.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the cheese and bacon, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top for added flavor and color.
Carefully transfer the baking sheet with the quiche to the preheated oven.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. Check the quiche around the 30-minute mark to ensure the crust isn’t browning too quickly; cover the edges with foil if needed.
Once baked, remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Easy Cheesy Bacon Quiche!
