Avocado Bacon Crustless Quiche Recipe
Description
The Avocado Bacon Crustless Quiche Recipe mixes beaten large eggs with milk, salt, and black pepper as a base. Shredded mozzarella cheese, crumbled cooked bacon, and diced avocado are stirred into the egg mixture for added flavor and texture. The mixture is poured into a greased pie plate and baked at 350°F for about 30 minutes until the quiche is set. Rotating halfway through ensures even cooking.
The quiche has a tender, custard-like texture without the addition of a crust. Creamy avocado pieces balance the saltiness and crispiness of the bacon, while the cheese melts into the eggs creating a cohesive filling. This quiche serves well for breakfast, brunch, or a light meal and can be sliced easily after cooling slightly.
Its simplicity and crustless nature reduce prep time and avoid extra carbs or gluten. The recipe is flexible for milk substitutions and flavor adjustments as preferred.
Ingredients
- 6 egg large
- 1/4 cup milk or your preferred milk/milk alternative, 2%

Instructions

- In a medium (2.5 qt.) bowl, add the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined.
- Add the cheese, bacon, and avocado. Gently stir until well mixed.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pie plate. If necessary, use a spoon to push some of the avocado and bacon around to ensure that it is evenly distributed throughout the quiche.

- Let the quiche cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
