4slicesbaconchopped
1cupcheddar cheeseshredded
1tablespoonall-purpose flour
3eggs
1cupmilk
black pepper
Instructions
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and black pepper. You can add as much or as little pepper as you want, depending on your tastes.
In another bowl, toss the cheese and flour together.
Place the ham (if you are using it), and bacon in the bottom of the pie crust. Top with the cheese/flour mixture.
Pour the egg mixture over the top slowly, so that it has time to sink in. Place the pie on a cookie sheet (just in case it overflows in the oven!) and bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 55 minutes.
The middle of the quiche should no longer be jiggly when it's done baking. Remove from the oven and let it cool for at least 20 minutes before serving so it can finish setting up
Recipe Notes
If you aren't ready to eat the quiche right away, cover the dish and set it in the fridge until ready to serve. It will last for a couple of days in the fridge.
