Ingrediënten

1 unbaked pie crust, (homemade or store bought)

1 tablespoon salted butter

½ medium yellow onion, chopped

1 teaspoon brown sugar

2 garlic cloves, minced

6 large eggs, room temperature

¾ cup heavy cream, room temperature

1 teaspoon sea salt

½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 cup shredded Gruyère or sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup cooked bacon, crumbled, or diced ham

Minced fresh chives, (optional)

Instructies

Cook onion and garlic

Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. When the butter begins to foam, add the onion and brown sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender, about 8-10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute longer.

Prepare the crust

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375º F with a rack in the center position. Gently press the prepared pie dough into a 9-inch pie or quiche pan. Using a fork, poke holes all over the crust. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Make the egg mixture

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg together until well combined. Stir in the cheese, bacon, and onion mixture. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared pie crust.

Bake until the eggs are set, about 35-40 minutes. The eggs should barely move when you jiggle the pan.

Serve

To serve, garnish with chives and cut into 8 wedges
