Quiche Lorraine Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Crust

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and prick the bottom with a fork. Pre-bake the crust for 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet, chop into small pieces, and set aside, leaving some bacon fat in the skillet.

3. 3

   Sauté the Onion

   In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

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

   Assemble the Quiche

   Spread the chopped bacon, sautéed onion, and gruyère cheese evenly over the pre-baked crust. Pour the egg mixture over the top.

6. 6

   Bake

   Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

7. 7

   Cool and Serve

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