Ingredients
The following ingredients have 8 Servings
- 1 blind baked pie crust, (either store bought or homemade (see notes) )
- 4 strips center cut bacon
- 2 cups broccoli florets, (chopped)
- 1 cup grated colby jack cheese
- 3/4 cup milk ((whole, 2%, skim, etc))
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/16 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat for about 10 minutes until crisp, then chop the bacon into pieces and reserve for later. Add the chopped broccoli to the pan and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Saute for 5-10 minutes until the broccoli is tender but not mushy.
- Evenly spread the cooked broccoli and bacon in your blind baked tart crust, and top it with the grated cheese.
- Make the custard by whisking together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper, and the nutmeg. Pour the custard into the tart shell, and bake the tart for 25-30 minutes. The tart is ready when you can no longer see liquid but the center of the tart jiggles slightly when moved. Cut the tart into pieces and serve!
