Keto Quiche


Crust:
1 cup almond flour
3 tablespoons coconut flour
2 eggs lightly beaten
4 tablespoons slightly melted coconut oil (let it cool)
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
* optional 1 tablespoon fresh minced thyme or basil your choice just for flavor (I used basil)

Quiche:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
5 large eggs
1/4 cup minced onion of your choice (I used dehydrated that I re-hydrated cause that's what I had)
1/2 teaspoon Pink Himalayan Salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
pinch nutmeg
10 slices precooked crumbled bacon
1 cup Mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 350°.
Mix all of the dry ingredients together for the crust.
Until soft dough forms.
Lightly grease a 9 inch pie pan.
Press the dough into the pan with your hands.
Bake the dough in the oven for 8 minutes or until slightly brown. (If it puffs up a bit just prick it with a fork.)
In a medium bowl mix the eggs, melted oil and basil. (Make sure oil isn't hot we don't want to cook the eggs.)
Whisk together the cream, eggs, onions, salt, pepper, pinch of nutmeg.
Then gently fold in the crumbled bacon and cheeses.
Pour the egg mixture into your precooked crust.
Bake for about 25 to 30 min until a you can insert a knife and it comes out clean.
Let cool for  about 5 to 7 minutes before serving.
Leftovers should be covered in plastic or place in airtight container and refrigerated.

My family doesn't eat Keto only I do, but even my kid loved this so it's a keeper. I gotta say being on the Keto diet has been easy but when I can make dishes like this and the whole family will eat it, it's worth it.
