Ingredients

– 2 whole yellow onions sliced

– 2 tablespoons of butter

– 8 slices of bacon

– 8 large eggs

– 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream or half-and-half

– salt and pepper to taste

– 2 cups of grated sharp cheddar cheese

3-Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure even baking.

4-Roll out the pie crust and press it into a deep tart or pie pan for a sturdy base.

6-Pour this mixture into the crust, place the pan on a rimmed baking sheet, and lightly cover with aluminum foil.

7-Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, remove the foil, and continue baking for another 10 to 15 minutes until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown.

8-Finally, let the quiche rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Overall, preparation takes about 30 minutes, with a total cooking time of 1 hour, making the whole process around 1 hour and 30 minutes.

๐Ÿฅ“ Use thick, quality bacon for chewy texture.
๐Ÿณ Covering with foil prevents over-browning during the first part of baking.
