We received a pound of sweet Walla Walla onions with this week's shipment of farm produce from our CSA and I wanted a quick and easy way to use them. I had zwiebelkuchen (German onion pie) in mind, and while the recipes on 'Zaar looked delicious, they also looked time consuming. So I took what I thought were the best ideas and used a pre-made crust. My partner and I thought the result was delicious and hope you do too!
Ingredients:
1 lb onion, thinly sliced
1/2 lb canadian bacon, diced
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
4 eggs or 1 cup egg substitute
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon nutmeg
salt and pepper
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425F.
2. Heat olive oil and crisp the bacon.
3. Add onions and cook over med-low heat until carmelized.
4. Salt and pepper to taste.
5. Combine eggs, sour cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
6. Place thawed puff pastry into a 8 square baking dish, folding dough up the sides.
7. Place onion and bacon mixture on the dough.
8. Pour egg mixture over.
9. Bake in a 425F oven for 45-60 minutes until eggs have set.
