Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices bacon
- 6 large eggs
- 1.5 cups milk
- 0.5 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoons unsalted butter (optional, for greasing the pan)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan or quiche dish with butter or cooking spray.
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cooled, chop the bacon into small pieces.
In the same skillet, remove all but 1 teaspoon of the bacon grease. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté over medium heat until fragrant and the onion becomes translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and heavy cream until smooth and well combined.
Mix in the shredded Swiss cheese, chopped bacon, cooked garlic and onion, salt, and black pepper into the egg mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie pan or quiche dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is golden brown on top and the center is set (a knife inserted into the center should come out clean).
Allow the quiche to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
