  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1/4 cup chopped onion

  • 1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade, if preferred)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish.

  2. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, and melted butter until well combined.

  6. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. Cool & Serve: Let the pie cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
