Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 slice bacon, cut into 1 inch slices
5 onions, thinly sliced
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/2 c milk
1/2 c cream
1 Tbsp flour
4 eggs
1 pinch ground nutmet
1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • 2. Place the bacon into a skillet, and cook over medium heat until browned. Remove bacon from skillet, reserving 4 tablespoons bacon fat, and drain on paper towels.
  • 3. Place the onions into the same skillet with the bacon fat, and cook over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • 4. Combine the milk and cream in a bowl. Sprinkle the flour over the onions, and stir to blend. Stir in the milk mixture. Cook and stir over medium heat until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat, stir in the bacon, and set aside to cool 10 minutes.
  • 5. Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl until light colored and frothy. Stir a spoonful of the onion mixture into the eggs. Add another spoonful of the onion mixture, and continue stirring. Repeat, until all the onions have been stirred into the eggs and are thoroughly blended. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie shell. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
  • 6. Bake in preheated oven until the crust is lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool 5 minutes before serving.

This recipe is not worth the effort. The pie is not that good.

This pie was a disappointment. The onions were not caramelized enough and the cheese was not melted properly.

I'm not a big fan of onions, but I really enjoyed this pie. The onions were caramelized perfectly and the cheese was melted and gooey. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was easy to follow and the pie turned out great! I especially liked the addition of the Gruyère cheese.

I made this pie for my family and they loved it! The only thing I changed was that I used a store-bought pie crust. It was still delicious.

This French Onion Pie was a hit at my dinner party! The flavors were amazing and the crust was flaky and buttery. I'll definitely be making this again.
