Ingredients

  • 1 9 " refrigerated pie crust
  • 1 lb pork sausage
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
  • Green onions for topping if desired

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • In saute pan brown your sausage and onions together until sausage is cooked and onions are translucent, drain and set aside.
  • In bowl whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  • Take a room temp 9" pie crust and place into a deep dish pie plate (helpful tip that we like is to gently roll out your pie crust lightly to make it a little bigger and "deep dish" size") and crimp edges.
  • Pour your sausage mixture into bottom of pie crust and spread out.
  • Sprinkle with 1 cup of your cheese and then pour your egg mixture on top.
  • Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake in oven for about 50 minutes or until set, halfway through cooking cover your pie crust edges with tinfoil or crust protectors to prevent burning.
  • Remove from oven and let set 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with green onions if desired.
