Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon, sliced
- 8 large eggs
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 cup gruyere or cheddar, shredded
- ½ medium yellow onion, diced small
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme or chives, chopped
- 1 pinch salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- 1
Cook bacon in a 10-inch nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-high until crispy, ~6 minutes. Chop and set aside; drain all but 1 tbsp fat.

Add diced onion to the same skillet. Cook, stirring, until softened and fragrant, ~3 minutes.
- 3
Whisk eggs with cream, salt, pepper, and thyme in a bowl until smooth. Pour into the skillet.

Sprinkle bacon and cheese evenly over the egg mixture. Let the skillet sit on the burner for 2 minutes without stirring — edges will start to set.

Transfer to a 400°F oven or oven-safe skillet. Bake until the edges are set and the very center still jiggles slightly, ~8 minutes.
- 6
Slide onto a cutting board. Let rest 2 minutes, then slice into wedges and serve.
