Ingredients:
- 1 pack of bacon 🥓
- 2 cups of Swiss cheese, grated 🧀
- 1/2 cup of onion, finely chopped 🧅
- 8 eggs, beaten 🥚
- 4 cups of half-and-half cream 🥛
- 1 teaspoon of salt 🧂
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper 🌶️
- 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley, chopped 🌿
- 1 teaspoon of dried parsley 🌿
Instructions:
| Time | Description |
|---|---|
| 15 mins | Preparation: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare two 9-inch deep dish pie shells. |
| 1 hour | Cooking: Beat together the eggs, half-and-half cream, salt, pepper, fresh parsley, and dried parsley until well combined. Distribute the bacon, Swiss cheese, and chopped onion evenly into the prepared pie shells. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings. |
| 15 mins | Baking: Bake the quiches in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Afterward, reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C) and continue baking for an additional 40-45 minutes, or until the quiche is fully set and the top is golden brown. |
| 15 mins | Resting: Allow the quiches to cool for 15 minutes before slicing. This helps to set the filling and makes for easier serving. |
| – | Tips: To prevent the edges of the pastry from browning too much during cooking, line them with aluminum foil rings before baking. This ensures an evenly baked quiche with a perfect golden crust. |
