Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Brown the bacon in a skillet. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain.

In a large bowl, whisk together the cream, eggs, salt, and pepper until smooth. Bake pie crust for 5 minutes and remove from oven. Put the browned bacon on the bottom of the crust, topped with the cheese. Gently pour the egg mixture over the cheese. Bake for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees F, cover quiche with foil, and continue baking for 10 to 15 minutes, or until middle has firmed.
