Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix together the almond flour and sea salt. Cut in the unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the large egg and knead the mixture until it forms a dough. Press the dough into a 9-inch pie pan evenly across the bottom and sides to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool slightly.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels. Crumble the bacon once cool.
In the same skillet, remove excess bacon fat leaving about 1 tablespoon, and sauté the chopped onion until translucent. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
In a large bowl, whisk together the large eggs, heavy cream, and whole milk until well combined. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, onion, and spinach. Season with salt and black pepper.
Pour the egg mixture over the pre-baked crust. Spread out evenly using a spatula.
Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Allow the quiche to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your gluten-free bacon quiche!
