This delectable Onion Tart is an easy-to-prepare dish that is sure to tantalize the taste buds of any dinner guest. A delicious combination of buttery shortcrust pastry, sweet and savory caramelized onions, creamy sour cream, and eggs all come together to form a scrumptious tart with an enticing visual presentation.

To begin, a pre-made shortcrust pastry base is rolled out and placed in a tart pan before being blind-baked for a crisp bottom layer. Next, the onions are peeled and sliced before being sautéed in butter until they reach a perfect caramelized flavor.

Once done, the softened onions are added to the tart shell before being whisked together with the eggs and sour cream for a rich custard filling. Lastly, it’s all popped into the oven until golden brown perfection; ready to be served warm or cold – whichever delicious way you prefer! This simple yet sophisticated Onion Tart recipe is sure to become an instant favorite for any special occasion meal or gathering.

  4. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and add the sour cream.

  5. Add the cooled onions to this mixture.

  6. Line a pie tin with shortcrust pastry (or use a pre-made case) and pour the mixture on top.

  7. Bake at 180 degrees for 45 minutes or until the middle is set. Can be served hot or cold.
