Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This high temperature helps create that beautiful golden crust while ensuring the filling sets perfectly.

Take a 9-inch glass pie plate and grease it generously with cooking spray or a light coating of butter to prevent sticking. I like to use a glass dish not just for aesthetics, but because it allows you to watch the edges brown beautifully!

Now, sprinkle the chopped bacon, shredded Swiss cheese, and diced onion evenly across the bottom of the pie plate. If you’re using bell peppers, sprinkle those in too—they add a beautiful pop of color and flavor!

In a medium mixing bowl, crack in the eggs and beat them lightly. Add the milk, garlic powder, and black pepper. Then sift in the Bisquick™ mix. Whisk until everything is blended together, making sure there are no lumps.

Carefully pour the egg mixture over the bacon and cheese mixture in the pie plate. Allow the filling to seep in, ensuring it spreads out evenly.

Slide the pie into your preheated oven and bake for approximately 35 to 40 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the edges are golden brown, and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Once baked, let the pie stand for about five minutes before cutting into it. This brief resting period allows the filling to solidify slightly, making it easier to slice.
