Quiche Lorraine (Sans Croûte)
Keto Crustless Quiche Lorraine (with Bacon, Cheese, and Cream)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request a crustless quiche or confirm they can make just the filling. About 7g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A savory custard tart from the Lorraine region, traditionally made with a pastry crust and a filling of eggs, cream, bacon (lardons), and Gruyère cheese. For keto, the defining crust must be removed, turning it into a rich, baked egg and bacon casserole.
Key ingredients
Eggs, heavy cream, Gruyère cheese, bacon lardons, black pepper, nutmeg. Small amount of onion possible.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request a crustless quiche or confirm they can make just the filling. Some restaurants might already offer this as an omelet or frittata equivalent.
Say this to the waiter (French)
Pour la Quiche Lorraine, est-il possible de l'avoir sans croûte, ou juste la garniture s'il vous plaît ?
For the Quiche Lorraine, can I have it without the crust, or just the filling please?
Watch out for
The pastry crust (primary risk). Small amounts of onion or flour sometimes used to stabilize the custard.
