Bacon and Cheese Crustless Quiche

Ingredients

  • 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheddar blend)

  • 6 large eggs

  • 1 cup milk or half-and-half (half-and-half = richer)

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • ½ tsp garlic powder (optional)

  • ¼ tsp onion powder (optional)

  • Optional: 2 tbsp chopped green onions or parsley


Instructions

1) Preheat

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.

2) Layer the Filling

  1. Sprinkle crumbled bacon evenly in the dish.

  2. Top with shredded cheese (save a little for the top if you like).

3) Mix the Eggs

  1. In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and optional seasonings until smooth.

  2. Pour egg mixture over bacon and cheese.

4) Bake

Bake for 30–40 minutes, until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
(If it jiggles a lot, it needs more time.)
