Whole Quiche - Bacon & Caramelized Onion Recipe

Preparation and Baking

1. 1

   Cook the Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Once cooled, crumble the bacon.

2. 2

   Caramelize the Onions

   In the same skillet, remove excess bacon fat leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add the chopped onion and cook over medium-low heat until soft and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

3. 3

   Prepare the Egg Mixture

   In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme until well combined.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Stir in the crumbled bacon, caramelized onions, and grated cheese into the egg mixture.

5. 5

   Bake the Quiche

   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Pour the mixture into a prepared pie crust. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
