Ingredients

For the Crust

  • 2 cups almond meal/flour I used Trader Joe's almond meal. Great price!
  • 3 tablespoon pure raw honey local, if possible
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil coconut oil would also work
  • 1/2 tsp salt

For the Filling

  • 1-1/2 cup almond milk any milk would work, I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk.
  • 4 eggs beaten
  • 1/4 tsp salt more to taste if desired
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 4 slices cooked turkey bacon diced (I use Applegate or Trader Joe's brand.)
  • 1/2 tsp basil dried
  • 1/2 tsp oregano dried
  • 1/2 cup light shredded cheese omit, if Paleo (I used Trader Joe's 3 cheese blend.)
  • 5 oz frozen chopped or cut spinach, thawed and drained (I use Cascadian Farm brand.) half a bo

Instructions

For the Crust

  • Stir all crust ingredients together in a medium bowl. Transfer mixture to a 9 inch pie plate and press down and together with your fingers. Mixture will seem really crumbly, but once you get it pressed together, it won't be so crumbly and crust does not crumble when sliced.

For the Filling

  • Whisk all ingredients together in a medium bowl and pour into crust.
  • Bake at 375 F for 50-60 mins and until eggs have set.
  • After quiche is finished cooking, allow it to cool for about 15 mins, if you're able to wait and if you're not, just go right ahead and dig in.

Notes

You can make this the night before, and cover with plastic wrap in the fridge, unbaked. Let come to room temperature while the oven heats up and then bake.
