Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 (9-inch) deep dish frozen pie crust unbaked
- 8 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1 c. Swiss cheese shredded
- 1/3 c. onion chopped
- 4 eggs slightly beaten
- 2 c. heavy cream
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prick the pie crust all over with a fork. Don't forget the sides! Pricking holes in the pie crust allows the steam to escape while it's baking.
- Sprinkle bacon, cheese and onion into pie crust.
- In a large bowl, combine slightly beaten eggs, heavy cream or half and half, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Pour mixture over bacon, cheese and onion.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees and bake 25-30 minutes longer or until knife inserted comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.
- Refrigerate leftovers.
