| 1. In a large size heavy skillet melt the butter and cook the onions over medium heat until soft, between 15 and 20 minutes, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon. You do NOT want the onions to be crunchy later. | 2. Add flour, stirring, and cook about 1 minute. | 3. Gradually stir in milk and cook 4 minutes; add cream, salt, and pepper. | 4. Remove skillet from stove top and set aside to cool slightly. | 5. Preheat oven to 400*F. | 6. When oven is pre-heated, taste sauce and adjust with more salt and pepper to suit your taste preferences (I like to add quite a bit more pepper). | 7. After taste adjustment, add 1 beaten egg to the cooled onion mixture and whisk thoroughly to combine. | 8. Pour the onion sauce into a lightly sprayed pie dish. | 9. Cover with layer of egg slices and sprinkle with cheese. | 10. Bake until lightly browned, about 15 minutes-depends upon your oven. | 11. Top with bacon crumbles. | 12. Allow to set for 5 minutes so that it will set up and be easier to plate. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
