Spinach Bacon Quiche Ingredients

For the Filling:

• 5 eggs
• 1 c. heavy cream
• 1 ½ c. fresh spinach, chopped
• 6 strips bacon, cooked and chopped
• 1 c. cheddar cheese, shredded
• ½ tsp. onion powder
• 1 tsp. pepper
• ½ tsp. salt

For the Crust:

• 1 c. flour
• ½ tsp. salt
• 6 tbsp. cold butter
• 4 tbsp. cold water

How to Make Spinach Bacon Quiche

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Mix flour and salt in a medium bowl. Cut in butter with a fork until the mixture is in crumbs.
2. Add water and blend together, place on a lightly floured surface, and roll out with a rolling pin. Place it in a pie dish.
3. Beat eggs with a whisk until well blended. Beat in cream, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
4. Layer spinach, bacon, and cheese in the pie crust. Then repeat. Pour egg mixture over top.
5. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until the egg is firm and the top is golden.

Pro Tips For Making This Recipe

1. Using cold butter for the crust helps create a tender, flaky texture.
2. Layering the spinach, bacon, and cheese throughout the filling helps everything bake evenly.
3. Be careful not to overmix the eggs, whisking only until blended rather than frothy for the best texture.
4. To check for doneness, make sure the center is set and no longer jiggly.
5. Letting the quiche rest before slicing will help it hold its shape.
