This is one of my favorite camping breakfast ideas! When you want a hearty, warm, savory breakfast that is easy and ready for the whole crew to eat at the same time… try this Bacon And Cheese Quiche Camp Dutch Oven Recipe.
Using a prepared pie crust helps to make this “camp cooking friendly” (although there is nothing wrong with rolling dough while camp cooking!)
Psst we’re compensated…see our disclosures.
How To Make Dutch Oven Quiche
Camp Cooking Tip: This Bacon And Cheese Quiche Camp Dutch Oven Recipe is easy enough to make in a camp Dutch oven, RV oven, solar oven or camp oven.
This little Coleman Camp Ovenwarms up over a camp stove and then folds flat reducing the amount of space required for storage and transportation.
Whichever oven you decide to use, make sure you level the stove before you begin cooking. That usually means starting on level ground, setting up a table then the stove and oven. If you need to level with shims, flat rocks found on the ground at the campsite usually work pretty well.
You are going to start this recipe by preheating your oven and frying the bacon. Here are a few supplies you might need.
Stainless Steel Cast Iron Cleaner
Camp Chef Heat Resistant Gloves
Lodge Camp Dutch Oven Tote Bag
If you are using a camp Dutch oven and need a little help knowing how many coals you need to maintain a certain temperature for the size of oven you are using, check out our Dutch Oven Temperature Chart for more information and helpful cooking tips!

Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 slices bacon
- 1 small onion chopped
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 9 inch unbaked pie crust (I get the ones in the freezer section and use it according to the instructions on the package but if you are more ambitious, you can make your crust from scratch 😉)
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees (for 12-Inch camp Dutch oven, use 25 charcoal briquettes placing 17 on top and 8 on bottom). See our Dutch Oven Temperature Chart https://www.campingforfoodies.com/dutch-oven-temperature-chart/ for more information.
Fry bacon in skillet, remove to drain and cool then crumble.
Reserve 1 tablespoon of grease in skillet and sauté onion until soft.
In a large bowl, use fork to beat together eggs, milk, flour, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper.
Then add crumbled bacon, onion, mozzarella and cheddar cheese; mix well.
Pour mixture into pie crust.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until lightly brown on top and firm in the middle. Turn the bottom and lid of the camp Dutch oven 1/4 turn in opposite directions every 10 minutes to ensure even cooking.
Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm.
Notes
Camp Cooking Tip: This Bacon And Cheese Quiche Camp Dutch Oven Recipe is easy enough to make in a camp Dutch oven but it can also be made in an RV oven, solar oven or camp stove-top oven. No matter which oven you choose, make sure you level the stove before you begin cooking. That usually means starting on level ground, setting up a table then the stove and oven. If you need to level with shims, flat rocks found on the ground at the campsite usually work pretty well.
