Keto Quiche Lorraine

Ingredients

• 1 Pie Crust, unbaked
• 8 ounces (225 g) Gruyere cheese
• 12 slices bacon
• 5 eggs
• 1/2 cup (120 ml) low-carb milk
• 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream, or you can use 1 cup (240 ml) half-and-half in place of the low-carb and the cream
• 1 pinch ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon (15 ml) dry vermouth
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Method

1. Have your crust ready in the pan and standing by
2. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C, or gas mark 4)
3. Shred your cheese and cook and drain your bacon-I microwave my bacon, and I find that 1 minute per slice on high is about right, but your microwave may be a little different
4. First put the cheese in the pie shell, covering the bottom evenly
5. Crumble the bacon evenly over the cheese
6. Now whisk together the eggs, low-carb milk, cream, nutmeg, vermouth, salt, and pepper
7. Pour this over the cheese and bacon
8. Bake for 45 minutes and then cool
9. Its actually traditional to serve Quiche Lorraine at room temperature, but you certainly may warm it if you like
