Eggs4 large
Salt0.5 tsp
White pepper0.25 tsp
Nutmegpinch
Bacon6 oz

Method

1

Preheat oven to 375°F. Place pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan; prick the base with a fork.

2

Cook bacon until crispy; drain, cool, and crumble. Dice onion and cook gently in the same pan until soft, about 5 minutes; drain excess fat.

3

If using spinach, blanch, drain, squeeze dry, and chop.

4

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, salt, white pepper, and nutmeg until smooth.

5

Scatter bacon, onion, cheese, and spinach (if using) evenly over the crust.

6

Pour custard mixture over fillings until crust is almost full; do not overfill.

7

Place quiche on a baking sheet and bake for 35–45 minutes, until the custard is set but the center still jiggles slightly when tapped.

8

Let cool 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
