When I tested out the recipe for this Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche with Kara, we couldn’t stop talking about how good it was! And I love the combinations of mushrooms and Feta in breakfast dishes, so I guess it only makes sense that adding bacon to two things that already taste good together will only make it better!
And I was developing this Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche recipe partly to work for Keto Diets, so I used a generous amount of bacon, but even if you prefer less bacon, I’m sure it will still be amazing! Who else likes to experiment with crustless quiche recipes? Let me know in the comments about any good combinations you’ve come up with.
What Ingredients do you need?

- Spike Seasoning (affiliate link), or any seasoning blend you like with eggs
- eggs
- heavy cream
What if you don’t want Feta Cheese in the Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche?
I’m obviously a huge fan of Feta! But if you’re not a fan or it’s not a winner with the family you can use any good melting white cheese like Monterey Jack or Mozzarella cheese in this recipe.
What mushrooms did we use for the Bacon Mushroom Quiche?
We used brown Cremini mushrooms for this recipe, but regular white mushrooms will be fine.
What if you don’t have heavy cream?
The heavy cream in this Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche just gives it extra creaminess, but if you don’t have that half and half or milk will also work.
How low in carbs is the Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche?
This extra flavorful quiche with bacon, mushrooms, and Feta only has about 5 net carbs per serving!

Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche
This Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche also has Feta cheese, and this quiche recipe is so tasty and would be perfect for a holiday brunch!
Ingredients
- 8 slices thick bacon, cut crosswise into short strips
- 1 lb. mushrooms, washed if needed and cut into thick slices
- 1 cup crumbled Feta cheese
- coarse ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tsp. Spike seasoning, or any seasoning blend you like with eggs
- 8 eggs, beaten well
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (see notes)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F/175C and spray a 9 inch or 9.5 inch glass or crockery pie pan with non-stick spray.

- Bake 35-45 minutes, until the quiche is set in the center and starting to slightly brown on top.
- Serve hot. Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for several days and reheated in the microwave or in a hot frying pan on the stove.

Low-Carb Diet / Low-Glycemic Diet / South Beach Diet Suggestions:
Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche is a good breakfast dish for any low-glycemic or low-carb diet. If you’re not eating Keto you might want to use a bit less bacon, and maybe wipe out some of the bacon fat from the frying pan and use olive oil to cook the mushrooms, although that bacon fat will make the mushrooms taste amazing. The original South Beach Diet doesn’t recommend bacon, but you could make this with turkey bacon and use a bit less Feta if you want to make it SBD friendly.

25 Comments on “Bacon Mushroom Crustless Quiche”
So glad you liked it and we’re able to make it work with the cheese that you had on hand!
I made this last night and we loved it! I added some spinach which I quickly sauteed in the pan after the mushrooms. Also used 1 Cup Sargento 4 Cheese Mexican instead of Feta. YUM!
Kalyn, have you ever tried using garbanzo bean flour for an eggless quiche? I can’t do eggs. I know it won’t be low carb, but it sure would be nice to have a quiche again. Or maybe tofu? Please”
Sorry, I haven’t tried either one of those but I did find this when I asked Google:
What can replace eggs in a quiche?
Tofu is great for egg substitutions in recipes that call for a lot of eggs, like quiches or custards. To replace one egg in a recipe, purée 1/4 cup soft tofu. It is important to keep in mind that although tofu doesn’t fluff up like eggs, it does create a texture that is perfect for “eggy” dishes.
Can you make mix everything the night before and then bake in morning!
I haven’t tried that and I’m guessing that you’d need to let the mixture come to room temperature or the baking time would be off.
Outstanding recipe! Made this tonight for dinner and everyone loved it. Eggs , bacon , mushrooms and feta is a truly a magical combination of deliciousness. My tummy is still doing the happy dance and is quite content. I look forward to making this many more times. A definite keeper. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe with us . Now I can’t wait to make another.
So glad you enjoyed! I love this combination of ingredients!
I’m a bacon lover and definitely will try it!
I have never heard this recipe before, I love to do the recipe in my coming weekend. Thank you for the new recipe.
Hi, Kalyn, I wanted to report back that I successfully made this recipe a day ahead, refrigerated it, then removed it from the fridge an hour before baking. Could not tell the difference in result from when I assembled/baked the recipe normally. This quiche gets rave reviews! Now I want to make it in quantity for my bunco group with “breakfast for supper” as my theme.
Melanie, yaay! So glad to hear that. Thanks for taking time to tell me (and other people who might be curious.)
This recipe is fantastic! I’ve followed your site for about 5 years when I had to begin eating gluten-free, but this is my first post, with a question. I’d like to serve it for breakfast when relatives come next weekend. Do you think it could it be assembled the day before and kept in the fridge until the following morning? Thanks!
Hi Melanie, so glad you are enjoying the recipes! I haven’t tried making it ahead like that. I can’t see why it wouldn’t work, but I think it will be important to take it out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature on the counter before you start cooking it, otherwise I think the top will get too brown before the middle is cooked.
Sorry if that defeats the purpose of making it ahead! If you do try that I’d love to hear how it works.
I used this wonderful recipe today. I substituted sliced black olives for the mushrooms and used turkey bacon. Hubby is scoffing it down as I type and talking with his mouth full. “Keep this recipe!”
Love your description! So glad it was a hit!
I do not follow the Keto diet and loved this recipe! Yummy!
So glad you enjoyed it!
I must be missing the nutritional information. I would like to know the number of carbs per serving.
More than a year ago I switched my site to WordPress, which created the need to edit by hand to add more than 2,000 recipes to the preferred format for google. I have been working on that (with three assistants) for more than a year, so there is no possibility of me being able to calculate nutritional information until that project is completed. And I know that once I start doing nutrition info on one recipe people will expect to see it on every recipe, which is why I have decided to keep these two projects completely separate.
If you look after the recipe itself, I give two links (where it says “Nutritional Information”) for suggestions of two ways to get that information. That’s all I am able to do at this time.
I am not going to publish or spend time responding to comments from people who know nothing about the Keto diet. If a recipe doesn’t appeal to you, just don’t make it. VERY SIMPLE!
Yes totally agree with you Kalyn. Some people have a boring life and no understanding of Keto recipes
so they have to write nasty comments to satisfy their boredom. Your recipes are so healthy and tasty. Keto is my way of life.
Keep your recipes coming.
Thanks Wanda, Glad you like the recipe.
Oh my goodness, I can almost taste the bacon jumping off the page!
Thanks Lydia; this was definitely a treat for bacon lovers!
