Quiche Lorraine

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare your pie pan with your unbaked pie crust. Pre-bake your pie crust for 8 minutes

Step 2

(I always use pie weights or dry beans or rice on top of parchment paper to keep the crust from shrinking. After the 8 minutes, remove the pie weights and parchment paper.)

Step 3

Meanwhile, cook bacon, in a skillet. Once cooked, remove to a plate and chop. Remove most of the grease from the pan and add onion. Saute for 2 minutes.

Step 4

Layer the bottom of the pie crust with cheddar and Swiss cheeses. Add bacon and onion on top.

Step 5

Mix the eggs, cream, milk and spices in a bowl. Gently stir while pouring over crust to evenly distribute all of the spices. Sprinkle shredded parmesan cheese on top.

Step 6

Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes - 1 hour, depending on your oven, until the center of the quiche is just set. If you notice the pie crust is browning too much you can place a piece of tinfoil over it while cooking. (I don't usually need to do this).

Step 7

Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Store leftovers, covered, in the fridge.
