2 tsp. sugar

1 1/2 tsp. salt

3 C. All-purpose flour

1 T. butter

1 C. water, warm

6 slices Bacon, chopped (preferably thick cut)

2 medium onions, sliced

1/4 tsp. Caraway seed

1/2 tsp. salt

Black pepper, freshly ground

1 each Egg

1 each Egg yolk

1C. sour cream

2 T. milk (optional)

 

Combine the yeast with sugar, salt and 1/2 C. flour in a bowl. Blend in the butter and warm water and mix to combine. Add enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough (you will need most of it) then turn this onto a lightly-floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turn to coat then cover and set aside to rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes. After this time, pat the dough into a lightly-greased, 12 inch pizza pan or a jelly roll pan. Cover and set aside as you prepare the filling. Place bacon in large, preheated skillet and cook until crisp then remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Using the remaining bacon fat, saute the onions until tender but not browned. Add the caraway then remove from the pan and sprinkle over the dough. Top with the crispy bacon. Bake at 400°F for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the egg, the egg yolk and the sour cream together. This will give a custard that you can spoon on top, leaving areas devoid of custard, which is how I like it. If you want something a bit more uniform add the milk to the egg mixture and pour over the onions, spreading it out to cover completely. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper. Bake 10-12 minutes longer, or until the top is golden brown and the sour cream mixture has set. Serve warm or room temperature, sliced into wedges.
