Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Line a 9-inch pie dish with the pie crust and crimp the edges.

Cook bacon in a nonstick skillet until crispy. Remove and crumble.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.

Step 6

Scatter the crumbled bacon and sautéed leeks onto the bottom of the pie crust.

Pour the egg mixture over the bacon and leeks.

Step 9

Allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
