Cowboy Quiche

By jenlin

Ingredients

• 8 slices bacon, fried until chewy
• 2 yellow onions, sliced
• 2 tablespoons salted butter
• 8 large eggs
• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 2 cups grated sharp Cheddar
• Deep Dish Pie Crust

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Chop up the bacon into bite-sized pieces.

Fry the onions in the butter in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat until deep golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix the eggs, cream and some salt and pepper together in a large bowl. Add the bacon, onions and cheese and stir to combine.

Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Cover lightly with aluminium foil, place on a sheet pan and bake for 45 minutes.

Remove foil and bake until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown, about 10 minutes more.

Allow to sit for 10 minutes.
