- Crust:
- 2 cups almond meal
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
- Filling:
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 5 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- 8 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix almond meal, butter, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper together, forming a ball. Gently press dough into a 9-inch pie pan.
- Bake crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. The crust will puff up slightly; gently press it back down with a spoon or fork. Continue baking until just lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Whisk half-and-half, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
- Sprinkle bacon into the bottom of the pie crust; top with Swiss cheese. Pour egg mixture over Swiss cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes to finish setting in the middle.
