Carnivore Crustless Bacon & Egg Pie
Ingredients:
- 8 large eggs
- 8 oz (225g) bacon, chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional, adds creaminess)
- 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 tsp black pepper (optional)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional, if you include dairy)
- Butter or animal fat for greasing the pan
Instructions:
- Preheat oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking pan with butter or animal fat. - Cook the bacon:
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Reserve a little bacon fat in the pan. - Mix eggs and cream:
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with heavy cream (if using), salt, and pepper until fully combined. - Assemble the pie:
Spread the cooked bacon evenly in the prepared pie dish. If using cheese, sprinkle half over the bacon. Pour the egg mixture over the bacon and cheese. Top with the remaining cheese, if desired. - Bake:
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is lightly golden. Insert a knife or toothpick into the center to check doneness—it should come out clean. - Cool and serve:
Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, add cooked sausage or a sprinkle of dried herbs if you tolerate them.
- This pie stores well in the fridge and makes great leftovers for quick meals.
