But seriously, this crustless quiche will be on rotation on your weekly menu. It’s filled with crispy bacon, garlic sautéed Brussels sprouts and shallots, and lots and lots of smoked gouda cheese. Do I need to say more??
But there is more! It’s easy to whip together and can be made in advanced and stored in the fridge. Ok, I know I have your attention and you totally want to try this dish!

Wait no crust??
Now you may be thinking a quiche usually has a crust and can it really still be good without it. The answer is yes! And it might be your preferred way to prepare a quiche from here on out.
First, you can skip the pesky crust, so it makes this dish easy to prepare. No need to make pie dough from scratch (and who has time for that during the holidays when you have a million other things to bake!). No need to even buy a store-bought pie crust and go through the trouble of rolling it out and crimping the edges. Nope! You just have to make the filling and you can pour it straight into a baking dish. Easy peasy!
And forgoing the crust actually amps up the deliciousness of this dish! It allows for the sides of the quiche to become golden brown, crispy, and delicious because there is no crust blocking it from touching the pan. So really it’s a win win in my book!
Finally, sans crust, this is a low-carb, super satisfying, and healthy dish, which is great to have this time of year amongst all the other heavy, rich dishes.

How is this Healthy?
As we already talked about, this is a crustless quiche, so the dish is very low carb.
Quiches are typically made with heavy cream. I omitted that in this recipe and instead used a combination of unsweetened plain almond milk and greek yogurt. The combination of these ingredients still creates a thicker luscious cream base (similar to heavy cream) that mixes with the eggs and makes them fluffy and rich without as much fat as heavy cream.
Now there is bacon and cheese in this dish, so it’s still satisfying and delicious. Bacon and cheese give me life and are some of my top fav foods! And they are the perfect addition to this low-crab, nutrient-rich dish so you it’s both healthy and indulgent. I’m all about balance!

Main Ingredients
- Eggs
- Greek Yogurt
- Unsweetened Plain Almond Milk or Milk of Choice
- Bacon
- Brussel Sprouts
- Garlic
- Smoked Gouda Cheese
Can I use different ingredients in this crustless quiche?
Yes! That is the beauty of a quiche – its customizable once you know the necessary ingredients and steps. The needed ingredients are the eggs, milk, and greek yogurt plus seasonings. You also arrange all of the ingredients at the bottom and then pour over the egg mixture and bake it for 35-40 minutes,
You can switch out the filler ingredients for other favorites or things you already have in your fridge.
If you have cheddar cheese in your fridge, you can use that instead of smoked gouda. Or you could omit the bacon if you want to make this vegetarian. You can also use any veggies you prefer (although I do recommend sautéing them with lots of garlic before adding them to the bottom of the dish to amp up the flavor).
Have fun with this dish and make it your own!
