Cook spaghetti in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente; drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

Add diced bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes; remove excess fat if necessary.

Add minced garlic and chopped onion to the skillet; sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, grated parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

Reduce heat to low and add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with bacon and onions; toss to combine.

Pour the egg mixture over the pasta, stirring quickly to create a creamy sauce; remove from heat.

If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of pasta water to loosen it.

Garnish with chopped parsley and additional parmesan cheese if desired.

Serve immediately, enjoying the creamy texture and savory flavors.
