To start my bacon spinach quiche, I focus on pre-cooking ingredients properly and assembling them for a smooth cooking process. Let’s dive into the specific steps and tips for easy preparation.

Preparation Steps
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) — a crucial step to ensure even cooking.
Bake the pie crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes — this will help avoid a soggy quiche bottom.
Cook bacon until crisp, then place on a paper towel to drain and chop once cool.
Sauté spinach and diced onion in a skillet with a bit of the bacon grease until the spinach is wilted and onion is soft.
Cooking Process
Whisk together eggs, cream, salt, and pepper in a bowl or blender until well combined.
Layer the cooked spinach, bacon, and shredded cheese in the bottom of the pre-baked pie crust.
Pour the egg mixture over the spinach, bacon, and cheese in the crust, allowing it to seep into the layers.
