How to Make Quiche Lorraine Poupon

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare your 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade).
  3. Evenly sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded Gruyere cheese, 4 slices cooked and crumbled bacon, and 2 tablespoons chopped green onions over the bottom of the pie crust.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese, bacon, and green onion mixture in the pie crust.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. For freezing instructions, see step 8-10.
  8. To freeze: Once cooled, cover the quiche tightly with plastic wrap, then aluminum foil. Freeze on a baking sheet for 1-2 hours to prevent sticking, then transfer to a freezer bag.
  9. Label and freeze for up to 2 months.
  10. To reheat from frozen: Remove from freezer and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through.
