Preparation

Step 1

1. Place diced Brie and Swiss Cheese in the bottom of the pie crust. Scatter the crumbled bacon over the cheese.

2. In a mixing bowl, lightly beat 6 eggs. Add 1/2 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup whipping cream, Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.

3. Pour this mixture over the cheese and bacon in the pie crust. Shake pie crust pan gently to evenly distribute the liquid.

4. Place pie pan on a baking sheet and bake at 375F degrees for about 45 minutes, until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.

5. Let it cool slightly before cutting and serving. Serve warm or cold.
