Breakfasts are often tricky for low carbers – I usually make do with a low carb tortilla, cream cheese and cooked bacon, or occasionally some low carb cereal with almond milk. But sometimes I like to have something a little more substantial, and this crustless quiche is perfect for a filling tasty breakfast or brunch.
Having said that – this recipe works equally well for lunch, or you could even cut it into smaller sections and serve as an appetizer or party food.
How to Make Crustless Quiche with Sausage
Spray a 9″ pie pan with non stick spray. Chop some small cooked breakfast sausage links and add them to the pan (always check the nutrition data panel with sausages and get the lowest carb ones that you can).
Whisk together some eggs and heavy cream in a jug, then stir in some shredded cheese, salt and pepper.
Pour the egg mixture over the sausages, and finish with extra cheese.
Bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the center is cooked. It will be all puffed up straight from the oven but will deflate a little after a minute or two.
Cut the quiche into wedges and serve warm.

Brilliant idea! I don't really like pastry anyway so this suits me perfectly.
