• Salt and pepper, to taste

---

Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with butter or nonstick spray.

---

2️⃣ Mix the Custard

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until fully combined. Season with salt and pepper.

---

3️⃣ Add the Fillings

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and cooked bacon. Feel free to add sautéed onions, spinach, or even chopped jalapeños for a twist.

---

4️⃣ Bake

Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top turns golden brown.

---

5️⃣ Cool and Slice

Let the quiche cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing. This helps the custard fully set and makes slicing cleaner.

---

Tips for Success

• 💡 Use room temperature eggs for smoother mixing.
• 🧈 Grease the pan well to prevent sticking.
• 🕒 Don’t overbake – check at the 30-minute mark; the center should jiggle just slightly.
• 🔁 Want to mix it up? Try adding Swiss cheese, caramelized onions, or chopped spinach.
