Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until it's perfectly crisp. Once cooked, drain it on paper towels and set aside to cool.
- Melt butter in the same skillet with the bacon drippings. Add the sweet yellow onions and ¼ teaspoon of salt; sauté for about 18 minutes—cover for the first 5, then uncover for another 10—until the onions are soft and golden brown.
- Cool the caramelized onions slightly as you prepare the tart crust.
- Prepare your tart pan by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray. Place the pie crust in the pan, gently pressing it into shape, and prick the bottom with a fork to avoid bubbling.
- Parbake the crust with foil and weights for 14-16 minutes until dry and just starting to turn golden. Carefully remove the foil and weights after baking.
- Whisk together the large eggs and sour cream in a medium bowl until smooth. Then, mix in the crisped bacon, caramelized onions, fresh herbs, the remaining salt, pepper, and nutmeg for a flavorful filling.
- Pour the filling into your prepared crust and bake for 25-30 minutes until set and golden-brown.
- Cool the tart for about 10-15 minutes. Slice and then serve warm or at room temperature.
