To make the quiche crust

1. Preheat the oven to 325F. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, garlic powder, and salt. Stir in melted butter until the quiche dough resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Turn the loose dough out into a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie pan. Press firmly into the bottom and up the sides. Use a flat-bottomed glass or measuring cup to even out the bottom of the crust.
3. Crimp the edges of the crust and prick the bottom all over with a fork. Bake 10-12 minutes, until slightly puffed and just starting to brown. Remove the quiche crust from the oven and set aside to cool.

To make the quiche filling

1. In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt butter. Add onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions are soft and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Take care not to let onions get crispy!
2. Fill the cooled quiche crust with caramelized onions and half of the grated Gruyére cheese.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the onions and cheese. Sprinkle the top of the quiche with remaining grated cheese.
4. Bake the quiche for 35-40 minutes or until the filling is just set in the center. Remove and let cool for 15 minutes before serving.
