Pastry for a 1-crust pie
1/2 pound slab bacon, diced
8 eggs, beaten
2 cups light cream
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Roll out pie crust and line a 9-inch pie plate. Prick the pastry with a fork at 2-inch intervals. Line pastry with aluminum foil and fill with rice or beans to weight. Place in oven and bake 15 to 20 minutes, or until pastry starts to brown.
  • Remove from oven. Remove aluminum foil and discard beans. Distribute bacon over bottom of pastry crust.
  • Combine all other ingredients except butter, mix well and pour over bacon. Dot with butter. Return to oven and bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and set aside to cool to room temperature before serving.
