Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices Bacon
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 pre-made Pie crust
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pre-made pie crust in a pie dish. Crimp the edges if needed, and set aside.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Once cool, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until smooth. Stir in the cheese, salt, and pepper.
If using green onions, finely chop them and add to the egg mixture.
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly over the pie crust.
Pour the egg mixture over the bacon, spreading it out evenly.
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Quick Bacon Quiche!
