How to Make Ree Drummond\u2019s Cowboy Quiche<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

For this recipe you\u2019ll need the following ingredients: an unbaked pie crust, flour, unsalted butter, yellow onions, bacon, eggs, heavy whipping cream (or half and half), salt, black pepper, and sharp cheddar cheese. While the recipe also offers instructions on how to make a fresh pie crust, if you happen to be pressed for time, you can always purchase a premade option from the store.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Whether you are making the crust based on your favorite recipe, using Ree\u2019s recipe, or are going the premade route, you\u2019ll want to start by blind baking<\/a> the crust. Blind baking (or pre-baking) your crust will deliver a less soggy outcome. While your crust is baking, take this time to cook your onions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Over medium-low heat, add unsalted butter to a large skillet and once melted, add the sliced onions, cooking until golden brown. This should take about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside on a plate. Then, in the same pan, add your strips of bacon, cooking over medium heat until crispy. Once done, pat dry to remove the excess grease and cut into small pieces.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Preheat your oven to 400\u00b0F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half, salt, pepper, bacon, onions, and shredded cheddar cheese until combined. Pour the mixture in the pie crust and bake for 45 minutes, loosely covering the top with aluminum foil and placing on a sheet pan to catch the overflow. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the top is slightly browned. Remove from oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

My Honest Review of Ree Drummond\u2019s Cowboy Quiche<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

I was a little nervous making this cowboy quiche because while reading the reviews online, I noticed a few common things that could go wrong. There was a possibility that the quiche could collapse or \u2014 once complete \u2014 the crust could be so soggy that it wouldn\u2019t come out as a whole slice. After doing my homework, I put it all to the test, following the instructions closely, and it came out pretty good in my opinion.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I can easily see why it\u2019s a favorite amongst many \u2014 it\u2019s a a very hearty and filling dish . And, with the portions included in the instructions, I had enough to make two pies! It was more than enough to feed a family of six, and still have some leftovers for breakfast or lunch the next day. Overall, I enjoyed making this dish and would easily make this for a holiday when multiple family members are in town visiting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
