This comforting pie combines crispy bacon, tender potatoes, and fluffy eggs all encased in a delicious cheesy custard.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel and dice the potatoes into small, evenly-sized cubes.
- In a pot of salted boiling water, add the diced potatoes and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
- In a large skillet, cook the bacon strips over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Once cool, chop the bacon into small pieces.
- In the same skillet with some of the bacon drippings, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
5. Mix the Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, grated Parmesan cheese, mustard, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Add the cooked potatoes, chopped bacon, sautéed garlic, and chopped parsley to the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine.
- Lightly grease a pie dish or a baking dish.
- Pour the egg mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the pie is set in the center and lightly golden brown on top.
- To check for doneness, insert a knife or toothpick into the center of the pie; it should come out clean.
- Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
- Serve warm, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
Tips:
- Pre-cook the bacon and potatoes before adding them to ensure an even texture and flavor throughout the pie.
- Use a pie dish or a cake pan that’s well-greased to prevent sticking and to make it easier to serve.
- You can substitute the Parmesan cheese with any other cheese of your preference, like cheddar or feta, for a different flavor profile.
- Let the pie rest for 5-10 minutes after baking to allow it to set properly, making it easier to slice and serve.
- For an extra layer of flavor, you can sauté the garlic slightly before adding it to the mixture.
Egg, potato, and bacon pie is a versatile and delicious meal that’s easy to prepare and sure to satisfy. Pair it with a fresh salad for a complete meal, or simply enjoy it on its own. With its rich flavors and delightful textures, this pie is sure to become a staple in your recipe collection.
