Ingredients

  • Almond-flour pastry:
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1 /2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 /2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 /4 cup olive oil
  • Filling:
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 6 slices bacon, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 /2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 /4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 cups shredded Gouda cheese
  • 1 /2 cup cherry tomatoes, cut into halves

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Grease an 11x7-inch glass baking dish.

Combine almond flour, Italian seasoning, and salt in a bowl; stir well. Mix in olive oil using a fork until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Knead dough into a ball. Press down dough into the prepared baking dish to form the crust.

Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Brush bottom with Dijon mustard.

Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 3 minutes.

Whisk eggs and heavy cream together in a bowl. Season with garlic, salt, ground black pepper, and ground nutmeg.

Layer bacon pieces over the bottom of the almond-flour pastry; top with shredded Gouda cheese. Pour in egg mixture and place cherry tomatoes on top. Sprinkle with oregano.

Bake in the preheated oven until set and golden, about 30 minutes.
