Keto Eggs Benedict Quiche Recipe

I am home and back in my kitchen! I have to be honest, I was a bit like a fish out of water, being away from a functioning kitchen for almost two full weeks. My husband very sweetly offered to have dinner ready for me when I got back last night, but I was like “Back off, buddy! That stove is mine, all mine!”. It hardly mattered what I made, as long as I could hear the satisfying woosh of the gas flame as I turned it on. It was balm for a hungry and travel weary soul. And you know I have to get baking again as soon as humanly possible. Expect great things, my friends, when a devoted baker has been away from her oven so long.

But I will look back on the Everyday Keto Book Tour with such a fondness and gratitude in my heart that I can’t quite put it into words. It was truly an amazing and eye-opening experience and it only served to strengthen my devotion to my blog and my readers. My reception at every stop was warm and friendly, my audience was engaged, and the event coordinators at all the book stores marvelled at how long we could all go on discussing the keto lifestyle. That was by far the best part for me…meeting readers who love the world we’ve created as much as I do. And newer readers who want to learn the ropes and find the recipes that will make them love this keto world.

And be sure to check out this hollandaise sauce for topping your quiche!

I found myself being thanked over and over again by readers and followers. Thanked for my recipes, thanked for my advice, thanked for my responsiveness to their questions and concerns. One young reader in Boston seemed quite overcome and said she felt starstruck to meet me. It was so endearing and I am so far from a “star” that I couldn’t help but give her a huge hug and tell it was okay, she could relax. As gratifying as that sort of reaction is, I have no designs on stardom. I want only to make the low carb lifestyle as accessible and as easy as possible for all of us.

To that end, I found myself handing out my business card as I signed books, telling people to email me with any questions at all. Answering reader comments and messages can stretch me thin sometimes but I find it to be a vital part of what I do. I think it sets me apart from many other bloggers and I treasure it. I value your emails, your comments, and your messages. Keep ‘em coming! I especially love your photos of my recipes, and even your suggestions and tweaks to make them better.

And when readers thank me for my work, I feel I have to reflect the thanks right back at them. I get to do what I do because of you – because of your support and your faith in me. I get to make a career and a business out of creating recipes that keep us all both healthy and happy. And I can only hope that making my recipes brings you as much joy as it does me. It’s a symbiotic relationship to be sure.

I do have one ask of you. If you have my book and you are enjoying it, I would so appreciate your Amazon or Barnes & Noble reviews. I read each and every one and they are vital to the success of this book. Thank you so much.

The Everyday Ketogenic Kitchen

Oh yeah and this low carb quiche…seriously good stuff. Go make it. Drizzle the easy hollandaise all over it. Enjoy and thank you!

Ingredients
Quiche
  • 1 recipe press-in pie crust
  • 8 ounces Canadian Bacon chopped
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

  • 2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
Quiche:
  1. Preheat the oven to 325F. Follow the instructions for the almond flour press-in pie crust and press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a glass or ceramic pie dish. Bake 12 minutes.
  2. Remove the crust from the oven and arrange the chopped Canadian Bacon over the bottom of the crust. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour over the bacon.

Hollandaise:
  1. Place egg yolks, lemon juice, and salt in the blender jar. Blend on high for 15 seconds.
  2. Remove the blender lid insert and place a small funnel with a narrow stem into the hole. With the blender running on high, slowly pour in the melted butter until the sauce is creamy and thickened.
  3. Add the cayenne and blend briefly. Add additional salt to taste. Drizzle over slices of quiche and top with chopped parsley.

    Carolyn, I’ve been really enjoying your cookbook and now will be able to cull my own collection of all the recipes I’ve printed off on your blog.

    This recipe sounds sooooo delicious. Another winner. I’ve asked our library to get your book (PEI) but I don’t know how long that might take. Costco could definitely sell a whole bunch.

    Thank you for all you do and I wish you success along with a long career creating wonderful alternatives.

      Hi Linda, another “Islander” here who adores Carolyn’s blogs and fabulous recipes! Was that the library in Ch’town you asked? If so, I’ll add my voice to the request.

      And yes, as a huge fan of eggs bennie, this will also be getting added to my “must make for me” list!

        I live in Summerside, but I think requests go to the entire library system. Why don’t you ask for it as well so they realize I’m not an outlier? While you’re at it add some others – Gary Taubes, Nina Tiecholz, Denise Minger, Peter Osborne…. so many great books but too few readers!

    I have been thinking about s eggs bennie’s for awhile. Nice to see a low carb recipe for it. I was just thinking about making it w/out the english muffin. I do have a question for you, which isn’t related to this. What do you think of the sweetener kabocha which is a Japanese gourd?

      I haven’t tried it yet. I assume it’s probably an extract similar to monk fruit?

        I think so. I actually bought some from Amazon, it looks just like sugar. I did make something w/it and it seems to work just fine. The Swerve gives me the cooling mouth effect, and bothers my stomach. I had a little cooling w/this, but didn’t notice any stomach issues. I used it making your skillet brownie.

          My daughter says the same. She can’t stand the cooling effect of Swerve, but the BochaSweet doesn’t seem to do that.

          I have had the same problem with swerve when a recipe calls for large amounts (like 3/4 cup or more) so whatever a recipe calls for, I use half swerve and half Just Like Sugar table top sugar and things taste great! I don’t notice the cooling anymore. I couldn’t help but respond to your post since I have been dealing with exactly the same thing. Happy baking!

    I can’t wait to try this. Like everyone else, I truly enjoyed meeting you, listening to you and your ideas, and taking a picture with you here in the Houston area. That was a big treat for me. I love your recipes and have tried your hint on thickening gravy. I really have tried to find where to buy the holiday booklet you spoke of, but can not seem to find it. (Any suggestions for that and any other of your publications?) Your recipes are fantastic and I can’t seem to get enough of them. Come back to Houston anytime and maybe we can throw you a party.

    Love Eggs Benedict, and this recipe just makes it easier. One question: Can you make the Hollandaise ahead of time and just re-heat? Thank you so much.

    Reply
    • Carolyn says

      October 19, 2017 at 8:22 am

      Hollandaise doesn’t re-heat very well. You can try doing that and then just whisking in some warm liquid to make it looser again.

    Here in California they say not to consume raw egg yolks, does the lemon juice kill it, or would making a traditional cooked Hollandaise be better health wise?

    Reply
    • Carolyn says

      October 23, 2017 at 7:44 am

      No, the lemon juice isn’t going to kill anything. If you feel uncomfortable, then a cooked hollandaise might be the right route for you. Or use pasteurized shell eggs like Safest Choice.

      Only about 2 days. And it gets very thick so you will need to thin it out again with a little water.

It’s no wonder we get star struck! You are a god send! I now eat “sweets” without my sugar addiction taking me to bingeing. My addiction is gone! And you are the biggest reason.

    Hello! I have made this twice now and it’s excellent! I’ve since gotten your Everyday Ketogenic Kitchen cookbook and everything I’ve made from that is fabulous too! I wanted to know if your calorie count for this recipe includes the Hollandaise sauce or not? And if it does, do you know how many calories and macros are in a serving of just the Hollandaise sauce?

    Reply
    • Carolyn says

      February 26, 2018 at 1:24 pm

      It includes the hollandaise but you can easily find the macros on the hollandaise alone in my book, since you have it! 🙂
