Equipment
- Standard Pie Dish
- Blender
Ingredients
For the Quiche
- 1 prepared low-carb almond flour pie crust
- 8 ounces chopped Canadian bacon
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For the Blender Hollandaise
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Fresh chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
For the Quiche
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Gently press your prepared low-carb almond flour pie crust into a standard pie dish, making sure it covers the bottom and sides evenly. Bake the crust for 12 minutes to get it started.
- Once the crust is lightly set, remove it from the oven. Evenly spread the chopped Canadian bacon over the bottom of the crust. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until everything is well combined and smooth. Carefully pour this delicious egg mixture over the bacon in the pie crust.
- Bake your quiche for 30 to 40 minutes. It’s perfectly done when the center is just barely set with a slight jiggle. Remove it from the oven and let it cool a bit while you whip up the creamy Hollandaise sauce.
For the Hollandaise
- To make the easy Hollandaise sauce, place the egg yolks, fresh lemon juice, and salt into your blender. Blend on high for about 15 seconds until combined.
- With the blender still running on high, slowly drizzle in the melted unsalted butter through the lid opening. Keep blending until your sauce becomes wonderfully creamy and thick – it's like magic!
- Finally, stir in the cayenne pepper and blend briefly. Taste and add a little more salt if you like. Serve warm slices of your Eggs Benedict Quiche, drizzled generously with the homemade Hollandaise sauce and garnished with fresh chopped parsley. Enjoy this healthy, satisfying meal!
