Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and crimp the edges. Pre-bake for 10 minutes to prevent a soggy bottom.
- In a skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove, crumble, and set aside. Sauté the mushrooms in the bacon fat until tender.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.
- Sprinkle the bacon, mushrooms, and cheese evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
- Pour the egg mixture over the top, ensuring an even distribution.
- Bake the quiche for 40-45 minutes until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
- Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Chef’s Tips
- For extra flavor, add sautéed onions or leeks to the filling.
- Ensure the pie crust is well-chilled before pre-baking to maintain its shape.
- If the crust edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil during baking.
