Recipe Name: Zwiebelkuchen
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cold water
- 4-5 large onions, thinly sliced
- 200g bacon, diced
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds (optional)
Step by Step Guide:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cold butter, and salt. Use your fingers to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Gradually add the cold water and mix until a dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
4. In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook over medium heat until caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and caraway seeds if using.
6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and sour cream. Season with salt and pepper.
7. Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface and transfer it to a greased pie dish.
8. Spread the caramelized onions over the dough, followed by the cooked bacon.
9. Pour the egg and sour cream mixture over the onions and bacon.
10. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
11. Allow the Zwiebelkuchen to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
