Ingredients

1 (9-inch) frozen or refrigerated pie crust
8 slices bacon, cooked, plus more for garnish
¼ cup thinly sliced shallots
¼ cup thinly sliced green onions
4 large eggs
1¼ cup heavy cream, or half and half
¼ teaspoon sea salt
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup shredded swiss cheese

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. If using frozen pie crust, place on the counter to thaw.
Gently press the thawed pie crust into a lightly greased quiche baking pan.
Gently poke a few holes on the bottom of the crust dough to ensure even baking. Place the pie pan on a baking sheet to make transferring to the oven easier.
Chop your cooked bacon and place on top of the pie crust. Next, sprinkle the chopped shallots, green onions, and shredded swiss cheese over the bacon.
In a medium bowl, add the eggs, heavy cream, cayenne pepper and salt. Whisk with a fork until fully combined. Pour the egg mixture over the top.
Slide the baking sheet (with prepared quiche pan on it) into the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the center has set and the crust edges are browned.
Once finished, remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with some more bacon, if desired, and serve.
