Preparation Steps
- In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt, whisking them together thoroughly. Cut in the unsalted cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in the crème fraîche and cold ice water until a thick dough forms. Wrap and chill for 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line the chilled tart crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights. Bake for 20-25 minutes, then remove weights and bake for another 10 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool on a wire rack.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy, then chop it. In the same skillet, add sliced onions and sauté for 10-15 minutes until translucent.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, crème fraîche, and black pepper until smooth. Fold in the cooled onions and chopped bacon.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake for 40-45 minutes until set and golden. Check for doneness at 35 minutes.
- Allow the tart to cool on a rack for about 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes
For best results, keep ingredients cold and avoid overcooking the onions. Follow chilling recommendations for a flaky crust.
