3. In the same frying pan, cook one pound of ground beef until it’s well-browned. (You can remove some bacon fat if it seems like too much, but use some bacon fat to cook the ground beef.)

5. Put the cooked ground beef over the bacon and sprinkle the onion and pickles over the beef.
6. Sprinkle one cup (or more) of grated cheese over the other ingredients.
7. Beat 8 eggs with cream or half and half, then pour that over the ingredients and gently “stir” with a fork.
8. Season eggs with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste, but remember bacon is salty.
9. Sprinkle the reserved bacon and the other 1/4 cup grated cheese over the top.
10. Bake 35-45 minutes, or until the quiche is completely set, cheese is melted and the top is nicely browned.
11. Serve hot and enjoy! This is also tasty for lunch or dinner.

Bacon Cheeseburger Keto Breakfast Quiche

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 45 minutes

Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes

Bacon Cheeseburger Keto Breakfast Quiche has those bacon cheeseburger flavors everyone loves, and this is delicious for a crustless quiche meal any time of day.

Ingredients

• 8 slices thick bacon
• 1 lb. ground beef
• 1/2 onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup dill pickles, finely chopped
• 1 1/4 cup grated cheese (see notes)
• 8 eggs, well beaten
• 1/2 cup heavy cream (see notes)
• Salt and fresh-ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Spray a  9 inch or 9.5 inch glass or crockery pie pan (affiliate link) with non-stick spray. (Probably optional, but it makes the dish easier to clean.)
2. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and cook the bacon until it's nicely crisp. Remove bacon to a cutting board or plate to cool, then crumble the bacon.
3. Reserve a little bacon to sprinkle over the top and put the rest of the crumbled bacon into the pie pan.
4. Remove some of the bacon fat from the pan if needed, then heat the bacon fat left in the frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking it apart with your fingers. Cook until the beef is completely cooked and starting to brown, breaking it apart with the turner as it cooks.
5. Add cooked ground beef to the pie pan.
6. While beef cooks, finely chop 1/2 an onion and 1/4 cup dill pickles. Sprinkle chopped onion and pickles over the ground beef.
7. Sprinkle the one cup grated cheese (or more) over the ingredients in the pie pan.
8. Beat the eggs until they're well-combined, then beat in the cream. Pour the egg mixture over the other ingredients and gently "stir" with a fork, so ingredients are well-combined.
9. Season eggs with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste, but remember bacon is salty.
10. Sprinkle the rest of the grated cheese and the reserved bacon over the top.
11. Bake 35-45 minutes, or until the quiche is completely set, the cheese is all melted, and the top of the quiche is nicely browned. Serve hot.

Notes

We used a blend of cheeses but any cheese that would be good on a bacon cheeseburger will work. Use a little more cheese if you prefer. Use half and half instead of heavy cream if you prefer.

This recipe created by Kalyn, Jake, and Kara, with a few experiments that were not quite what we wanted.
