- 400 g flour all-purpose
- 200 ml cold water
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tsp salt

- 400 g Creme Fraiche or sour cream with 30% fat
- 250 g Bacon cubes
- 2 onions small

- black pepper
- nutmeg
Vegetarian Toppings
- 400 g Creme Fraiche

- 1/2 bell pepper
- 40 g Bergkäse cheese from mountains

Instructions
Prepare the dough
- In a large bowl mix together flour, cold water, oil and salt. Knead it for about 3-5 minutes. The dough shouldn't stick to your fingers. If it is - add more flour.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough sit for at least 30 minutes. The plastic wrap prevents the dough from drying.
Prepare your toppings
- Peel and cut the onion into thin rings. (Flammkuchen will bake for only 10 minutes in the oven, so make sure the rings are thin)
- In a small bowl, mix crème fraîche, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Check if you like it. :) Make sure that it's not too salty—there will be bacon on top of it, after all!
Traditional Version
- Take the bacon cubes out of the fridge.
- Cut bacon into cubes.
Vegetarian Version
- Wash and cut the bell pepper into thin stripes.
Make Flammkuchen
- Preheat the oven to 250°C (480°F). Let the baking tray warm up in the oven as well.
- After resting, transfer the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for another minute.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape into rounds.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a flat circle. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet and the backing sheet to the oven.
- Spread the crème fraîche (3 large tablespoons) into each round, along with onion rings and additional toppings.
- Bake for 10 minutes until crust on the edges turns golden brown.
