-
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees and coat the bottom of a 9 inch pie dish with coconut oil.
-
Coat each butternut squash round with a thin layer of coconut oil or ghee and arrange on the bottom of the dish, overlapping a bit (they'll shrink when roasted) Cut 4 rounds in half and arrange around the perimeter of the dish to form a crust. Sprinkle with a bit of sea salt.
-
Put baking dish in the preheated oven and roast for about 30 minutes, until lightly browned and soft (check halfway through to prevent burning)
-
While the crust is in the oven, caramelized the onions: melt the 2 tbsp of coconut oil or ghee in a medium skillet over low heat, add the onions, and toss to coat. Add a sprinkling of sea salt as well.
-
Continue to cook and stir over low - med/low heat for about 20-30 minutes, until golden brown and very soft. Keep the heat low enough to prevent the onions from burning.
-
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the coconut milk salt, and pepper until smooth. Add the spinach to the caramelized onions and stir to combine, remove from heat.
-
Once the crust is done, lower the oven heat to 400 and sprinkle the onion/spinach mixture over the butternut squash, then the crumbled bacon. Give the eggs and coconut milk a good whisk again, and pour over everything (it will "leak" through the crust, which is fine)
-
Bake for 15-20 minutes in the 400 degree oven or until the eggs are just set and the edges begin to turn golden - don't let the quiche turn brown.
-
Remove from oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Sore leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Enjoy!
