Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups Immaculate Baking Co.™ organic all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
3/4 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup cold buttermilk
1/2 cup butter
2 large sweet onions, cut in half and thickly sliced (4 cups)
1/4 cup Immaculate Baking Co.™ Cane Sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
8 slices bacon, crispy cooked, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 egg, slightly beaten
4 tablespoons crumbled chèvre (goat) cheese

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Cut in 3/4 cup cold butter, using pastry blender or fork, until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk until dough comes together.
  • Knead 5 to 10 times or until dough is smooth. Shape dough into flattened round; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold.
  • In 12-inch skillet, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium-high heat. Add onions; cook 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are tender. Stir in sugar and vinegar. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are light golden brown. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the thyme leaves and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cool onion mixture 10 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 425°F. Line large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. Using floured rolling pin, roll chilled dough on lightly floured surface to 14-inch circle. Roll one edge of dough onto rolling pin, and carefully place dough on cookie sheet.
  • Using fork, poke holes in dough
  • Spoon onion mixture onto center of dough; spread to within 2 inches of edge. Scatter bacon pieces on top of onion mixture. Fold 2-inch edge of dough up over filling, pleating crust as necessary. Brush crust with egg.
  • Sprinkle cheese over bacon in center of galette. Bake 22 to 24 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon thyme leaves over galette. Serve immediately, or let stand 30 minutes.
