Breakfast Pie Recipe
This is a favorite of mine, and is easy to alter for different flavors. Typically I use cooked bacon, but any cooked brakfast meat will work. I don't measure, so mentioned measurements are approximate!

Ingredients
  • Pie crust (store bought or homemade, to fit a 9" pie pan)
  • 8 - 10 eggs (depending on size - I use 8 XL)
  • Splash of milk/cream (1/8 cup?)
  • Finely shredded cheese, your favorite (I use cheddar)
  • 12 ounces of breakfast meat (I use a package of center cut bacon)

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 325
  2. Cook the breakfast meat
  3. Line 9" glass pie pan with crust - bake if necessary (not needed if using prepared pie crust)
  4. Layer a healthy portion of shredded cheese evenly in the pie pan, about 1 cup
  5. Layer the cooked & drained breakfast meat over the cheese
  6. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs and milk/cream. Pour over the meat and cheese
  7. Bake uncovered for 40 minutes
  8. Cut into quarters and serve with mixed fruit and preferred breakfast beverages

Careful with the cheese on this. I like a lot of cheese, but found that too much makes it more liquidy in the middle. Also, I've been known to add a bit more meat, particularly bacon. Just like Emeril Lagasse, it's a prk fat thing for me . . . . .


I made this the other day with 12 ounces of Jimmy Dean regular sausage (cooked, drained and crumbled) in place of the bacon. As Rachael Ray would say, Yum-o!
