Easy Crustless Quiche (Custardy and Fuss-Free)
Report
This easy crustless quiche with bacon, broccoli, and Gruyère cheese is rich and custardy, and because there's no pie crust to bake, it's healthy, hassle-free, and simple to make. Or, customize it with your favorite fillings.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F with a rack set in the middle. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp and browned, flipping halfway through, 7-10 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel, then break into bite-size pieces. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the rendered fat in the pan, discard the rest, and wipe out any burned bits. Return the skillet to medium heat and cook the onion in the bacon fat until soft, about 2 minutes, and set aside.
- In a 4-cup measuring cup or medium bowl, vigorously whisk the eggs, cream, kosher salt, and pepper until well blended and frothy.
- Butter a 9-inch pie tin, then layer 1 cup of the Gruyere cheese, broccoli, bacon, and onions, and top with the remaining cheese. Give the egg mixture another whisk, and pour evenly over the fillings. Carefully transfer to the oven and bake for 40 minutes, rotating halfway through cooking time. Use a cake tester or a sharp, thin knife that should come out clean when quiche is done. Cool the quiche on a baking rack for 20-30 minutes before cutting. I find the quiche cuts best when completely cooled and served at room temperature. Or, gently reheat room temperature quiche in a 350°F oven for 15 minutes or microwave at 50% power for 2 minutes.
