Zwiebelkuchen (Onion Pie)


And what is a "Zwiebelkuchen"? you may ask. Simply put it is an Onion Pie with carraway seeds and bacon.....and a delicious doughy crust. It's a great side dish to add to your Oktoberfest menu. 


6 pounds onions, sliced
4 slices bacon
16 oz. sour cream
4 eggs
2 T. all purpose flour
½ t. salt
½ t. caraway seed
2 recipes pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a jelly-roll pan or large pizza pan with prepared dough, making sure dough extends up sides of pan.

Sauté onion in a skillet until translucent and pour cooked onion into a large mixing bowl. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, chop and add to onion; mix well.

Stir in sour cream. Beat eggs enough to break up yolks, then mix in to pie mixture. Add flour to thicken mixture (onions will create a lot of water), then add salt. Mix well and pour mixture into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with caraway seed.
