Ingredients

• 1 unit Pre-made pie crust
• 6 slices Thick-cut bacon
• 1 cup Gruyère cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 3 units Large eggs
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 pinch Ground nutmeg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges if needed. Set aside.

Step 3

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet, drain on paper towels, and crumble into bite-sized pieces.

Step 4

Sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly into the prepared pie crust. Then, add the shredded Gruyère cheese on top of the bacon.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture over the bacon and cheese in the pie crust, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.

Step 7

Place the quiche on a baking sheet (to catch any drips) and bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is lightly golden.

Step 8

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
