CARAMELIZED ONION & BACON FRITTATA

10 slices thick bacon
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoons cider or balsamic vinegar
8 eggs
1/4 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Whisk together the brown sugar and vinegar.
• Toss onions and bacon slices in the mixture, packing it onto the slices.
• Layer bacon and onions on grilling rack.
• Bake 15-20 minutes or until crisp.

• Increase oven to broil.
• In a medium* cast iron skillet, heat the butter. Make sure to coat the sides also with the butter.
• Whisk the eggs, milk and salt and pepper together.
• When the butter foams, pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring until eggs begin to scramble and are still quite moist.
• Top with the onions, bacon and cheese.
• Broil about 2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are done.
• Slice and serve.

*I used a large (the only one I have) and it would have looked better in a medium size.
