Salt

to taste

Black pepper

to taste

Milk

1 cup

Eggs

3 large

Sharp cheddar cheese

2 cups, grated

Unsalted butter

2 tablespoons

Onions

2 large, thinly sliced

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until combined. Stir in the grated sharp cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
4. Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish, ensuring it fits snugly.
5. Spread the caramelized onions evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
6. Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the caramelized onions, ensuring all onions are covered.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
8. Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
