Ingredients
- 1 refrigerated pie crust I used Pillsbury ready-to-bake
- 1 small yellow onion (130g) chopped
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk (240g)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- fresh ground black pepper to taste
- 6 slices bacon cooked & crumbled
- 4 oz. extra sharp white cheddar cheese shredded
- Optional for serving: arugula or tossed greens, orange slices, fruit
Instructions
- Bring pie crust to room temperature. Unroll and press into a greased 8-inch pie dish.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Ensure a rack is positioned on the bottom half of the oven.
- Spray a small skillet with cooking spray and set to medium heat. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes or until soft. Remove from heat to cool.
- Whisk the eggs in a bowl until lightly beaten, then whisk in the milk, salt and pepper.
- Stir in the sautéed onions, crumbled bacon and shredded cheese.
- Pour into the pie crust. Bake for 37-42 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let sit for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
If using uncooked bacon, cook the bacon before sautéing the onions. Use a medium pan to cook the bacon then transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain and cool. Drain bacon grease then cook the onions in the skillet (continuing rest of instructions as listed)
