Vidalia Onion Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 medium Vidalia onions (sweet)
2 Tbsp. butter
1/2 lb. sharp Cheddar cheese, grated
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 c. scalded milk
salt and pepper to taste
35 saltine crackers
1/4 lb. softened butter

Preparation

Crumble saltines and combine with softened butter.
Press onto the bottom of a glass baking dish (a square one is good).
Saute the onions (peeled and sliced) in 2 tablespoons butter until golden, but not brown.
Put the onion mixture on top of the saltine crust.
Spread the grated cheese over this mixture.
Mix the custard in a bowl (milk, eggs, salt and pepper). Pour over the top of the casserole and bake at 350\u00b0 for 25 minutes. Bake until golden.
Keeps well. Freezes well, too!
