Ingredients:
- 1 pre-made pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 4 large eggs 🥚
- 1 cup heavy cream 🥛
- 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese 🧀
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced 🧅
- 6 slices beef bacon, chopped into small pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves 🌿
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish 🌿
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped beef bacon and cook until crispy. Remove and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized (about 15-20 minutes). Add the thyme, salt, and pepper to taste.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. Stir in the shredded Gruyère cheese, caramelized onions, and crispy beef bacon.
- Pour the mixture into the pie crust, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden on top.
- Allow to cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color! 🌿
