Ingredients

• 1 pre-made pie crust
• 8 slices Canadian bacon
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 small onion (finely diced)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Press the pre-made pie crust into a standard 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess dough hanging over the edges.

Step 3

In a medium skillet over medium heat, lightly sauté the diced onion until softened, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

Lay the Canadian bacon slices evenly across the bottom of the pie crust to cover the surface.

Step 5

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the Canadian bacon.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

Step 7

Stir in the sautéed onions and optional chopped parsley (if using) into the egg mixture.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture over the Canadian bacon and cheese layer in the pie crust, filling it just below the edge of the crust.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the quiche to the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 10

Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
