How to Make Breakfast Quiche With Bacon

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Line the unbaked pie crust with a double layer of heavy-duty foil, ensuring it covers the bottom and sides completely.
  3. Blind bake: Bake for 5 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  4. Reduce oven temperature to 425°F (218°C).
  5. Evenly sprinkle the crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, Gruyere cheese, and chopped onion over the pre-baked crust.
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, sugar, and cayenne pepper until well combined.
  7. Pour the egg mixture gently into the prepared crust, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (218°C).
  9. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (149°C).
  10. Continue baking for 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. The quiche should be set and lightly golden brown.
  11. Let the quiche cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
