Loaded with fluffy eggs, diced ham, and lots of cheese, this keto quiche is an easy low carb breakfast option that's great for meal prep or holiday mornings.

📝 Ingredients

  • 1 prepared keto pie crust (made from this recipe, see Notes)
  • 6 large eggs
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup cooked, diced ham (or cooked, diced bacon)
  • 1 green onion (chopped, approximately 2 tablespoons)
  • 1 cup freshly shredded cheese (see Notes)
  • ½ teaspoon salt (more or less to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper (more or less to taste)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit.
  2. 2Crack eggs directly into large bowl, then add heavy cream. Whisk ingredients together vigorously until mixture is pale yellow in color and no streaks of egg or cream remain.
  3. 3Add diced ham, chopped green onion, shredded cheese, salt, and pepper to egg mixture. Whisk ingredients together until thoroughly combined, then pour mixture into prepared pie crust.
  4. 4If needed, spread mixture out into one even layer, touching all sides of pie crust. Place pie plate in preheated oven and bake 20 minutes, or until eggs are fully set but not too firm. To check doneness, gently shake pie plate. If center of quiche filling wiggles, return quiche to oven and bake another 5 minutes, then check again. Repeat process as needed, baking in small increments until quiche is ready.
  5. 5When quiche filling is fully set but not too firm, remove pie plate from oven and set aside to cool. Let quiche cool 10 minutes, then slice as desired and serve warm.
