Ingredients
  

  • 4 pieces bacon cooked and cut into ½" pieces
  • ½ yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 9 eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper fresh ground
  • teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup gruyere cheese grated

Equipment

  • Glass pie pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, saute the onion until soft (about three minutes). Remove the onions. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove the skillet from the heat.
  3. Spray a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray. Layer ⅓ of the bacon and onions in the pie pan and top with half of the cheese. Layer another ⅓ of remaining bacon and onions in the pie pan and add with the remaining cheese. Top with the remaining bacon and onions
  4. Gently beat the eggs with a wire whisk until combined. Add the cream, nutmeg, salt and pepper and stir to combine. Pour the egg mixture over the onions, bacon and cheese.
  5. Bake for 35 - 40 minutes or until the quiche is set and develops a light golden brown on top. Let the quiche sit for 10 to 15 minutes, then slice and serve.
