I enjoy preparing hearty country breakfasts for the guests at my bed-and-breakfast. This fluffy golden pie, which has lots of cheese and bacon, is a most satisfying entree.Mark Clark, Twin Mountain, New Hampshire Ingredients:
1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches) |
12 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled |
1/2 cup shredded pepper jack or monterey jack cheese |
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
1/3 cup finely chopped onion |
4 eggs |
2 cups heavy whipping cream |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon sugar |
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450° for 5 minutes; remove foil. Bake 5 minutes longer; remove from the oven and let cool.
2. Sprinkle bacon, cheeses and onion over the crust. In a bowl, beat eggs, cream, salt, sugar and cayenne; pour into the crust. Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Yield: 6-8 servings.
