How to Make Cowboy Quiche 2

  1. **Caramelize the Onions:** In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add sliced onions and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until deeply golden brown. Set aside to cool.
  2. **Cook the Bacon:** Cook bacon until crispy. Chop into large bite-sized pieces and set aside to cool.
  3. **Preheat Oven & Prep Crust:** Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out pie crust and gently press it into a large fluted deep tart pan.
  4. **Whisk Egg Mixture:** In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Stir in the caramelized onions, cooked bacon, and shredded cheese.
  5. **Assemble & Bake:** Pour the egg mixture into the prepared pie crust. Place the tart pan on a rimmed baking sheet.
  6. **Blind Bake (Optional):** For a crispier crust, you can optionally blind bake the crust for 10 minutes before adding the filling.
  7. **Bake Covered:** Cover the quiche loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 40-45 minutes.
  8. **Bake Uncovered:** Remove foil and continue baking for 10-15 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown. The center should be just slightly jiggly.
  9. **Cool & Serve:** Remove from oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before carefully removing from the tart pan (if using). Cut into slices with a sharp serrated knife and serve warm or at room temperature.
