Ingredients for Alsatian Quiche

  • 4 large eggs
  • Heavy Cream
  • Sweet Onion
  • 4 slices cooked bacon
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Pastry Dough

How to Make Alsatian Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare your pie crust (store-bought or homemade).
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs until light and frothy.
  4. Add 1 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup milk to the eggs; whisk until well combined.
  5. Add 1/2 cup grated onion and whisk gently.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste (about 1/4 teaspoon of each).
  7. Crumble 4 slices of cooked bacon and sprinkle evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
  8. Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese over the bacon.
  9. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bacon and cheese.
  10. Dot the top with 2 tablespoons of butter, cut into small pieces.
  11. Place the pie pan on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
  12. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden brown. The center should be just slightly jiggly.
  13. Let cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
