Onion Pudding image

A friend's mother made this for us last year. We have tweaked it and added other spices, as well as the water chestnuts and almonds. We have served to rave reviews many times since then. We use Vidalia onions when they are in season.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 large eggs
2 cups heavy cream
6 ounces shredded Parmesan
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon minced canned chipotle en adobo
1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 cup unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing pan
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
7 medium-sized Vidalia onions, thinly sliced
1 (8-ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with butter.
