Ingredients
- 12 slices Bacon, Cut Crosswise Into 1/2-inch Strips
- 1 Medium Onion, Halved And Thinly Sliced
- ¼ pounds Puff Pastry, Thawed
- 3 Large Eggs
- ½ cups Heavy Cream
- Salt And Freshly Ground Pepper
- 1-½ cup Grated Gruyere (or Cheddar) Cheese
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400ºF.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook bacon, stirring occasionally, until pieces start to brown (4 to 5 minutes). Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until bacon is crispy and onions are lightly browned (5 to 7 minutes). With a slotted spoon, transfer mixture to a plate; let cool slightly.
While bacon/onion mixture is cooking, unroll puff pastry to 10-inch square and place in an 8-inch square baking pan. (You might need to fold the corners to fit.) Prick bottom of dough with a fork. Spread bacon/onion mixture over pastry.
In a small bowl, whisk eggs, cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Pour egg mixture over the bacon/onion mixture. Sprinkle cheese on top and bake until filling is set and top is golden (about 40 minutes).
