How to Make Sudden Quiche Lorraine
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prick the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie crust with a fork. Bake for 8 minutes.
- Remove from oven and reduce temperature to 325°F (160°C).
- While the crust pre-bakes, cook 4 slices of bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp (about 5-7 minutes). Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Add 1/2 small yellow onion, finely chopped, to the bacon fat remaining in the skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is golden brown (about 2 minutes).
- Pour the cooked onions into the pre-baked pie crust.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste, and 1 1/2 cups shredded Gruyere cheese (or your favorite cheese).
- Stir in the cooked, crumbled bacon.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pie crust over the onions.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
