List of Ingredients





This pie is a great way to use up a lot of onions. It’s inspired by a recipe I received from my Mom, but have since misplaced. In testing the recipe, I served it with grilled sausage and grilled green tomatoes. The combination with this quiche-like pie worked well.

1 9” unbaked pie crust
1 tablespoon olive oil
2–3 large onions, sliced (about 4 cups)
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
2 eggs, large
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
½ cup provolone, jack or mozzarella cheese, grated
¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1½ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme or 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Preheat oven to 375°.
Roll out pie crust. Place in pie pan and crimp edges. Set aside.
In a large sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic. Cook until soft, but not brown, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk eggs, sour cream and flour. Add in grated provolone, salt, pepper, cayenne and thyme. Add cooked onion mixture and stir well. Pour onion-egg mixture into pie crust. Smooth top. Top with grated parmesan. Bake on middle rack for 35 minutes or until center is set. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Makes one 9” pie
