Steps:

  • Sift dry dough ingredients into bowl; cut in butter. Add milk, a tablespoon at a time, tossing just until flour is dampened. Gather into ball. Pat 2/3 of dough in bottom of 8-inch round cake pan. Bake at 425 degrees until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cool on rack and turn oven down to 325 degrees.
  • Meanwhile, fry bacon until crisp; drain most of bacon fat. Cook onion in remaining bacon fat until tender. Combine remaining filling ingredients with bacon and onion.
  • Pat remaining dough around edge of cooled pan. Pour filling into crust. Bake at 325 degrees until almost set, about 20 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

1 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
3 tablespoons milk
6 slices bacon, cut into 1/4-inch strips
3 cups chopped onions (about 3 medium)
2 beaten eggs
1 beaten egg yolk
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper
1 teaspoon chopped chives

GERMAN ZWIEBELKUCHEN (ONION PIE)

Zwiebelkuchen is an onion pie from Swabia, in south-central Germany. It is a special time of year, in the fall, when the mom & pop winemakers will open a BasinWirtschaft in their barn or garage. They serve the new wine, fresh zwiebelkuchen, and perhaps some wurst, for a minimal fee. A few tables are set up, and they are open when they have time to serve. To indicate they are serving, they will hang a straw broom over the doorway. The combination of the onions and the 'green' wine can have explosive consequences later on!

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a jelly-roll pan or large pizza pan with prepared dough, making sure dough extends up sides of pan.
  • Saute 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.
  • Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until onions start to turn golden brown on top.

ZWIEBELKUCHEN ( SOUTHWEST GERMAN ONION CAKE)

This is a traditional late summer early fall snack, usually served with 'new wine'. It is not a sweet cake, but a nice hearty fall weather dish. I got this off a German website and translated it into English. This recipe is very good, and you will not be disappointed! Good for a potluck, or even a party snack.

  • Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk and let stand for 5 minutes. Place the flour and salt in a food processor and make a well in the center. Add the butter and pour the milk mixture over. Using a dough hook, knead the dough on the “bread” setting for about 6 minutes. Add more milk or flour as needed. Form the dough into a ball, spray the same bowl with oil oil, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let the dough rise in a warm place until nearly doubled in size. (I usually turn the oven on 350 degrees F for about 1 minute just until it’s a warm, turn it off, and let the dough rise in the oven).
  • Fry up the bacon. When the bacon is done add the onions to it along with 2 tablespoons of butter. Reduce the heat and let the onions slowly caramelize to a nice golden brown, about 30-40 minutes. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool.
