Ingredients

*Crust:

9 Tbsp cold unsalted butter

1 cup flour

1/3 cup sour cream

*Filling:

6 slices bacon

2 Tbsp minced flat-leaf parsley

3/4 cup cottage cheese

1 1/8 cups heavy cream

6 egg yolks

1/4 tsp salt

Pinch of white pepper

*Optional: 1/2 cup shredded cheddar, jack or havarti cheese

Directions

Prepare crust dough: Cut butter into small pieces (about the size of a dime) and toss with flour to coat. Add sour cream and mix just until combined. Form a flattened ball, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Prepare filling: Cook bacon until crisp. Drain well, crumble and set aside. Place cottage cheese in a plastic bag and mash until smooth, or use a hand blender on low speed to smooth.

Whisk together cream, egg yolks, salt, pepper and cottage cheese just until combined.

Preheat oven to 375F.

*Assemble quiche: Remove dough from fridge and roll out to 1/8" thickness. Line an 8" pie plate with the dough and poke holes in the bottom with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.

Sprinkle the crust with the bacon and parsley, distributing evenly. Pour cottage cheese-egg mixture over the top.

Put quiche in 375F oven and immediately lower the temperature to 350F. Bake for 35 minutes or until set in center.

*Optional: Halfway through baking, sprinkle top of quiche with 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar, jack or havarti cheese.

This sounds absolutely heavenly. I ran to fridge to see if I still had enough cottage cheese to make this tonight but alas I didn't. But it is bookmarked and will be made very soon. Thanks for the post.
