BACON & CHEESE QUICHE

What you'll need

Here’s what you’ll need to make this incredibly easy bacon quiche:

Pie Crust
This convenient bacon quiche recipe is baked in a deep dish, unthawed frozen pie crust. Of course, you can make and freeze your own pastry pie crust.

Bacon
A can of bacon bits makes this quiche super easy. You can use homemade bacon if you’d like.

Onion
Though this bacon quiche recipe just calls for a half cup of diced onion, you can incorporate any veggies you like — mushrooms, bell peppers, and asparagus would all work beautifully.

Cheese
Use two types of cheese (shredded Swiss and grated Parmesan) to add irresistible flavor and create a creamy texture.

Eggs
You’ll need four whole, lightly beaten, eggs to make this easy bacon quiche.

Cream
A cup of half-and-half results in a rich, melt-in-your-mouth quiche.

  • 1 (9 inch) deep dish frozen pie crust
  • 1 (3 ounce) can bacon bits
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • 5 ounces shredded Swiss cheese
  • 3 ounces grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup half-and-half cream

How to do it!

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Place unthawed pie crust in a pie pan on a baking sheet. Mix bacon, chopped onion, and both cheeses in a medium bowl. Pour this mixture into the crust.

  3. Mix eggs and half and half in a bowl until blended; pour the egg mixture over the cheese mixture.

  4. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until the top of the quiche begins to turn golden brown, an additional 35 minutes.
