Report

This low carb quiche has a decadent bacon and gruyere cheese filling that's baked to perfection in a tender flaky Keto pie crust.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F
Roll out the pie crust and place inside a 9” nonstick tart pan with a removable bottom. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and bake for 8 minutes, then remove and set aside.
While the crust is baking, add the bacon to large skillet and fry until slightly crispy. Allow to cool before chopping, then set aside.
Drain some of the bacon grease, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the pan. Add in the onions and sauté until they are just starting to caramelize.
In a large mixing bowl, add in the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, nutmeg and thyme, then mix until well combined.
Add in most of the bacon, most of the cheese and all of the onions to the baked pie crust. Pour the egg mixture over the top, then sprinkle the remaining cheese and bacon on top.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the eggs are cooked through. If the edges of the crust start to brown before the eggs are cooked, you can gently wrap them with strips of aluminum foil and continue baking. Allow to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before cutting into slices.

Notes

This recipe uses 1 Keto Pie Crust recipe, omit the sweetener and add a pinch of salt. You can also make this into a crustless quiche if you'd like, just omit the quiche and follow the rest of the recipe.
If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a pie dish instead.
I highly recommend using Gruyere, the flavor is just so perfect for this quiche. If you can't find Gruyere, you can use Swiss cheese instead. If you don't like thyme, you can substitute with parsley.
