Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 200 g flour
  • 100 g butter
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 3 sprigs of sage
  • 1 onion(s)
  • 150 g bacon, diced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 250 ml milk
  • 150 g crème fraîche
  • salt and pepper
  • Fat for the mold

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 50 minutes

Quickly knead the flour, butter, 1 egg yolk, salt, and water in a food processor with the cutting blade until you have a smooth dough, then chill for one hour. Chop the leaves from a sprig of sage, then finely chop the onion. Melt the butter in a pan. Sauté the bacon and sage in it, then let cool. Mix the eggs, 2 egg yolks, milk, and crème fraîche, season with salt, and pepper. Roll out the chilled dough and place in a greased quiche dish. Spread the bacon and onions over the dough. Pour the egg wash over it and garnish with the remaining sage by simply draping the sprigs decoratively on the surface of the pie. Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C (top/bottom heat) on the lowest rack for approx. 25-30 minutes until light brown. Tip: As a variation, you can chop some sun-dried tomatoes (preserved in oil) and bake them on top of the topping.
