Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices bacon
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
In the same skillet, leave about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease, add the butter, and melt over medium heat.
Slice the onion thinly, then add it to the skillet. Cook until the onion becomes soft and caramelized, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Chop the cooked bacon into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until fully combined.
Add the caramelized onions, chopped bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper to the egg mixture. Stir until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Pour the mixture into a greased 9-inch pie dish, spreading it out so that the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.
Allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious keto bacon and onion quiche warm.
