Recipe Ingredients

With a no-roll crust and a creamy, savory filling, this Bisquick® quiche is a simple yet satisfying dish you can make any time of day. Below are the ingredients you’ll need for this recipe.

Bisquick™ Original Pancake & Baking Mix: This is the foundation of our recipe, creating a soft, tender crust without the need for rolling—making prep quick and easy.

Butter: Adds richness and helps bring the crust together for that perfectly tender bite.

Boiling Water: This simple addition helps form the dough, making it easy to press into the pie plate.

Canadian Bacon: Brings a savory, slightly smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with the creamy filling.

Shredded Swiss Cheese: Melts beautifully to create a rich, smooth, and slightly nutty flavor throughout the quiche.

Green Onions: Adds a mild, fresh pop of flavor that balances the richness of the cheese and eggs.

Half-and-Half: This is what makes the filling luxuriously creamy and smooth.

Eggs: The backbone of the quiche, giving it that classic custard-like texture and structure.

Salt: Enhances all the flavors and ties everything together.

Ground Red Pepper (Cayenne): Adds just a subtle hint of warmth to round out the flavor.

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups Bisquick™ Original Pancake & Baking Mix
1/4 cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons boiling water
1 package (6 oz) sliced Canadian bacon, chopped
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese (4 oz)
4 medium green onions, thinly sliced (1/4 cup)
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)

Instructions

Step 1

Heat oven to 400°F. Grease the bottom and side of a 9-inch pie plate with shortening.

Step 2

In a large bowl, stir Bisquick and butter until blended. Add boiling water; stir vigorously until a soft dough forms. Press dough in the bottom and up the side of the pie plate, forming an edge on the rim of the plate.

Step 3

Sprinkle bacon, cheese, and onions over the crust. In a medium bowl, beat half-and-half, eggs, salt, and red pepper with a spoon until blended. Pour into the crust.

Step 4

Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until the edge is golden brown and the center is set. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Recipe Tips

Chop the Canadian bacon, shred the cheese, and slice the onions the day before; store separately in refrigerator. Beat the half-and-half mixture; store covered in refrigerator.
