Caramelized Onion Gruyere Quiche

Ingredients

1 refrigerated pie dough

1/2 cup caramelized onions - I make these in bulk and freeze them.  I use this recipe (click here)

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup heavy cream

3 large eggs

Pinch nutmeg

6 ounces Gruyère cheese, grated

Steps:
1. Prebake the crust - preheat oven to 350 and roll your crust into a 9 inch pie pan.  Bake for 10 min using parchment paper topped with pie weights.  Then remove the parchment paper and pie weights and poke the bottom of the pie with a fork and bake for another 10 min until golden.

2.  After the crust cools slightly line the bottom with 1/2 of the grated cheese, then layer in the caramelized onions and top with the remaining 1/2 of the grated cheese.

3. Whisk together milk, cream, eggs and nutmeg.  Then pour over the cheese and bake for 35-40 min at 350.  Cool for approx. 10 min before serving.
