Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the 4 large eggs until frothy.
- Add the 1 cup half-and-half (or milk), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the eggs and mix until fully combined.
- Layer the bottom of the prepared gluten-free pie crust with 1 cup of cooked chopped bacon and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese. Sprinkle the 3 tablespoons of chopped green onions over the cheese layer.
- Carefully pour the whisked egg mixture evenly over the filling ingredients in the pie crust.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese over the top of the quiche filling.
- Place the quiche on the middle rack and bake for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, loosely cover the quiche with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning. Continue baking for another 20-30 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the quiche to cool for 5 to 10 minutes on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
