Time 2h10m

Yield 1 (9-inch) quiche, 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 thin slices bacon, about 6 ounces
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound cremini mushrooms or a combination of cultivated and wild mushrooms, trimmed, cleaned, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
6 medium shallots, finely chopped, about 1/2 cup
1 clove garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups half-and-half
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
Freshly ground black pepper
Generous pinch freshly grated nutmeg
4 ounces grated Gruyere or Swiss cheese, about 1 cup
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook the bacon in a medium skillet, over medium-high heat until just crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the fat in the pan. Add 2 tablespoons butter, the mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring over medium heat, until the mushroom juices evaporate, about 7 to 10 minutes. Add the shallots and cook until tender and mushrooms are golden, about 3 minutes more. Add the garlic and parsley. Remove from heat, cool slightly.
  • Brush a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie pan with the remaining butter and sprinkle evenly with the grated Parmesan. Place pan on a baking sheet. Scatter half the Gruyere into the pan and crumble the bacon on top. Add 3/4 of the mushrooms, then the remaining cheese.
  • Whisk the half-and-half, eggs and yolks in large glass measuring cup. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. Pour the custard over the fillings. Top with remaining mushroom mixture and sprinkle with chives.
  • Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, about 40 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack before serving.

I thought this quiche was just okay. The flavors were a bit bland, and the texture was a bit too dense. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

This quiche was delicious! The crustless design made it a bit lighter than traditional quiche, and the flavors were amazing. I especially loved the combination of mushrooms, bacon, and shallots.

This quiche is a great way to use up leftover mushrooms and bacon. It's also a nice change from the usual egg and cheese quiche. I will definitely be making this again.

This quiche was just okay. The flavors were a bit bland, and the crustless design made it difficult to slice and serve. I think I will stick to my traditional quiche recipe in the future.
