Ingredients
- 1 Pie crust
- 5 Eggs
- 1.5 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Gruyère
- 6 oz Bacon
- 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
Steps
- Heat the oven to 375°F. Fit the crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges.
- Blind-bake: line with parchment, fill with pie weights or dried beans, and bake 12 minutes so the bottom stays crisp.
- Crisp the chopped bacon in a skillet; drain on paper towels.
- Scatter the bacon and grated gruyère over the warm crust.
- Whisk the eggs, cream, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until completely smooth.
- Pour the custard over the filling — it should come just below the rim.
- Bake 35 minutes, until the center still wobbles slightly when nudged; it sets as it cools.
- Cool at least 15 minutes before slicing.
