Georgia Sweet Vidalia Onion Pie

Ingredients

1 deep dish frozen pie crust, do not thaw

1 medium sweet vidalia onion

5 large eggs

½ cup whole milk

½ cup cream

1 tsp onion salt

1 tsp cracked black pepper

1.50 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, preferable white

½ cup chopped jalapenos (optional)

½ cup chopped bell peppers

1 cup cherry tomatoes, for garnish

1 cilantro, for garnish

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Transfer the frozen crust to your own pie plate.

Peel and slice the onion ⅛ inch thick. I use a mandoline slicer to get them nice and thin.

Cut most of the rings into halves or quarters, while leaving a few whole for topping the pie.

Gently whisk the eggs to break them up, and whisk in the milk and cream. Season with onion salt and pepper.

Spread the cheese out onto the pie crust, and then follow with most of the onions, reserving a few rings for the top.

Pour the egg and cream mixture into the pie crust, It should just fill the top.

Put the pie on a baking sheet, this makes it easier to transfer to the oven and bake for 60 minutes.
