Super Simple Egg & Bacon Pie

Step 1

Turn your oven on to 200C (400F). Heat a small frying pan on a medium high heat. Add a little oil and cook bacon pieces, stirring often until bacon is browned.

Step 2

Take a large square of baking paper. Wet the paper by scrunching it under running water from the tap. Flatten the damp paper to line the base and sides of a 24cm (9in) spring form tin or a pie dish. Scatter almond meal and a little salt over the base of the tin.

Step 3

In a medium bowl combine eggs, cream, cheese, chives, half the cooked bacon and a pinch of salt until mixed through. Pour the egg mixture over the almond meal base. Top with the remaining cooked bacon.

Step 4

Bake for 20 minutes or until the pie is golden and puffed up a little.

Step 5

Serve hot, warm or chilled.
