Como fazer Lower Cal Buttermilk Bacon Spinach Quiche

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush a 9-inch pie crust with egg yolk.
Blind bake the pie crust: Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes.
While the crust bakes, cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Let cool slightly, then chop into small pieces.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, 1/2 cup light cream, 3 large eggs, and 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese.
Add 10 oz (280g) fresh spinach (roughly chopped and drained), the cooked bacon, and a pinch of cayenne pepper to the wet ingredients. Mix well.
Carefully remove the pie weights and parchment paper from the pre-baked crust.
Pour the quiche mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Nutritional information excludes the optional pie crust.
