To begin with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can cook cheese and bacon quiche using 11 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Cheese and Bacon Quiche:
  1. Prepare 2 , 9", Deep Dish Pie Crusts (seriously, buy them)
  2. Get 1/2 pound Cave Aged Gruyere, shredded fine, (buy the good stuff, its the main ingredient)
  3. Take 1/2 pound Cheddar, shredded fine, (I used Black Creek 9 Month Aged)
  4. Take 6 Rashers Bacon,diced, (again, good stuff only. Go to the meat counter)
  5. Take 1/2 a small White or Yellow Onion, diced fine
  6. Make ready 1 small Carrot, diced fine (I did mine too large, ended up not being a problem)
  7. Take 1 stalk Celery, diced fine
  8. Prepare 2 cloves Garlic, minced OR grated (either is great)
  9. Prepare 3 Tablespoons AP Flour
  10. Prepare 7 Eggs
  11. Make ready The following to taste: salt, pepper, cayenne, (a minuscule amount of curry), and freshly grated nutmeg

Simply combine a few ingredients and then bake it in the oven. A Bacon and Cheese Quiche baked in a tart pan - perfect for Sunday brunch or a holiday. I loved this quiche recipe for many reasons, but especially because it was baked in a tart pan, instead of the traditional pie plate. Maybe it's just me, but I think anything baked in a tart pan with that perfectly.

Instructions to make Cheese and Bacon Quiche:
  1. You can either pre-heat your oven to 375f now or hold off. These quiche are amazing for the freezer, but not as good as in your stomach.
  2. About 20 minutes before you're ready, throw your cheese in the freezer to make it easier to shred. Once chilled, using either a box grater or the attachment on your food processor, shred the cheese and toss with the flour in a large mixing bowl. (Really get it coated, its important)
  3. In a large skillet, add your diced bacon and a touch of water (I used a shotglass-full) and crisp the bacon over medium to medium-high heat. Once crisp, pull the bacon to a paper towel lined bowl and remove all but about 2 tablespoons of fat in the pan.
  4. Add the diced onion, carrot, celery and garlic to the pan with the bacon fat in it and add a small pinch of salt (When I say small, I MEAN SMALL. We want to pull out moisture, but there is already salt from the bacon. Be cognizant of your heavy handedness) Sautee until translucent and remove to a bowl.
  5. Crack all 7 eggs into a mixing bowl and season with salt, pepper, cayenne, curry, and nutmeg. Reserve to the side.
  6. Mix together the (now cooled) vegetables and bacon with the shredded cheese. Split this mixture into two, and fill the pie crusts to just short of the lip. Ensure you get an even layer as well as even distribution.
  7. Split the egg mixture into two, and pour (carefully) into the pie crusts. The mixture should come up to the edges of the crust. (Be careful of filling it too much, you want to be able to move these)
  8. Either wrap in plastic and freeze until ready (up to I'd say a week or so) or bake in a 375f oven for about 1 hour until the edges are golden brown, and the center doesn't jiggle when you shake the pan.
  9. PRO TIPS: 1. If your crust is cooking too fast, cover with a makeshift ring of aluminum foil. This will protect your crust while the quiche finishes cooking
  10. PRO TIPS: 2. I highly recommend placing your quiche on a pizza stone that you just leave in the bottom of your oven during pre-heating. It will help to cook the bottom of your crust.

Serving quiche has just become extra easy. Sprinkle bacon, cheese and onions over crust. In medium bowl, beat half-and-half, eggs, salt and red pepper with spoon until blended. Add the bacon, onions, cheese, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
