Quiche Lorraine Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pie Crust

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and poke the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and set aside.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Once cooled, chop into small pieces.

3. 3

   Caramelize the Onions

   In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden (about 15-20 minutes).

4. 4

   Prepare the Filling

   In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.

5. 5

   Combine Ingredients

   Add the chopped black forest ham, cooked bacon, caramelized onions, and shredded Gruyere cheese to the egg mixture. Mix well.

6. 6

   Bake the Quiche

   Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the quiche is set and lightly browned on top.

7. 7

   Cool and Serve

   Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
