I love onions, so the prospect of an onion pie is next to nirvana for me.  But even for those who don't like onions, you might like this pie.  It's a savory, hearty dish that can easily be a meal.  I love visiting Lovina's during "onion season" because there's a good chance she'll serving this dish.  Here is the recipe.

Amish Onion Pie

4 thick slices of bacon, diced

2 cups peeled and chopped yellow onion

2 eggs, beaten

1 cup sour cream

1 tablespoon flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

1 9-inch pie shell, unbaked

* Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Sauté onion until clear 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 into 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 if desired. Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until onions start to turn golden brown on top.
