This recipe for easy keto quiche makes a delicious low-carb quiche Lorraine recipe. It’s one that is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
Loaded with the rich flavors of Swiss cheese, eggs, mushrooms, and bacon for one perfect low-carb brunch recipe option.
Quiche is the perfect make-ahead dish that is simple to customize. Unfortunately, traditionally, quiche is very high in carbs, and it’s why I created a keto-friendly quiche that anyone doing a low-carb diet could enjoy.
It features a coconut flour, flaky keto buttery crust that fools your tastebuds into thinking it’s the traditional high-carb version.
That’s right. It’s a quiche made with coconut flour and is flat-out delectable!
Although I enjoy a good keto frittata, sometimes I crave the crust that only a quiche can provide.
With that in mind, I set out to create a recipe for quiche Lorraine that would be keto-friendly and have the same characteristics as the classic one so many of us have come to love.
I wanted all the flavor of regular quiche minus the carbs that a wheat crust recipe has. So if you are looking for a fast and easy gluten-free quiche, then this recipe won’t disappoint.
Imagine a keto or low-carb quiche Lorraine that can be put together quickly and enjoyed often. I am happy to report that this is it!

How To Make A Keto Quiche
Making the best keto quiche is pretty straightforward and the crust doesn’t even have to be rolled. It’s one you just press into the pie pan allow to chill for a minimum of 15 minutes.
I recommend you do the crust first and then proceed to make the Lorraine quiche filling. You’ll need to cook your bacon to crisp, then saute your onions and garlic in the rendered bacon fat.
Once your onion and garlic are translucent, you’ll saute your mushrooms.
Then, it’s just a matter of mixing the egg custard and cheese filling and adding the parsley, bacon, onion, mushrooms, and seasonings.

Easy Low-Carb Quiche Lorraine – Keto
Have you ever wondered how quiche Lorraine got its name?
I must admit that for the longest time, I thought Quiche Lorraine was named after some genius little lady who whipped up a great meal for her family back in the 1950s.
But I was wrong. Quiche Lorraine got its name after the Lorraine region in France. The first Quiche Lorraine was an open pie that featured a filling of eggs, cream, and smoked bacon.
In the original recipe, the crust was made with bread dough, today it’s usually made with a shortcrust or puff pastry.
Quiche first became popular in England shortly after WWII, and then later in the 1950s in the USA. Today, there are many variations on this classic French dish, including low-carb crustless quiche.
However, this girl would consider a crustless quiche more of a frittata and not necessarily a quiche.
Keto Quiche Crust
![keto coconut flour press in crust for quiche](https://www.fittoservegroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/keto-quiche-crust-1024x783.jpg.webp)
I decided to make the crust for this easy quiche out of coconut flour. I am quite partial to the texture coconut flour provides in a keto crust.
Would you like to save this?
However, if you prefer, you can also use my keto pie crust that uses almond flour.
This gluten-free crust makes the ideal pair for the creamy, tasty filling.
In fact, I have a few keto pies on our site that employ my coconut crust, like my Keto Apple Pie, and my Keto Fudge Pie.
I also made the crust for this keto quiche with coconut flour so that individuals who have nut allergies could also enjoy this quiche, Lorraine.
Additionally, using coconut flour instead of nut flour means that this easy keto quiche has the added benefit of being even lower in carbs. Win! Win! Win!
Customize Your Low-Carb Quiche Recipe
Surprisingly, you can readily customize this easy keto quiche to make it your own. Add or substitute any of the filling items as long as you remember to keep the eggs and water amounts the same.
The great part is that you probably already have many of these ingredients at home already!
Some good options would be to add some
- Asparagus tips
- Spinach leaves
- Grilled onions
- Broccoli florets
- Red peppers
- Green peppers
- Tomatoes
- Change the cheese to something like a sharp cheddar.
If you are looking for an easy and delicious healthy quiche option that you will be proud to serve, I am sure you will enjoy my easy, low-carb quiche.
