Bacon, Sausage & Cheddar Quiche
Description
The Bacon, Sausage & Cheddar Quiche uses a raw 9-inch pie crust as a sturdy base filled with a mixture of cooked bacon, crumbled sausage, and caramelized onions for a robust flavor foundation. The custard is made from a blend of eggs, heavy cream, and milk, seasoned with salt, pepper, and ground mustard powder. Baking initially covered prevents overbrowning while setting the filling, and finishing uncovered helps achieve a golden crust. The resulting quiche is rich and full-bodied with a balance of salty meat, sharp cheddar, and sweet onion.
The combination of cooked meats and rich cheese provides a filling dish ideal for brunch, light lunch, or dinner served alongside leafy greens or fresh fruit. It holds well at room temperature or warmed gently before serving.
No additional notes are provided from the original recipe.
