Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices bacon
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose baking mix (e.g., Bisquick)
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray or butter.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove the bacon and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
Using the same skillet, sauté the finely chopped onion in the bacon drippings over medium heat until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Spread the cooked onions evenly across the bottom of the greased pie plate. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top, followed by the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring even distribution.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, all-purpose baking mix, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Carefully pour the egg mixture over the bacon, onions, and cheese in the pie plate. Ensure the liquid is evenly distributed.
Place the pie plate in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges. Serve warm and enjoy!
