ZWIEBELKUCHEN ( SOUTHWEST GERMAN ONION CAKE)

Zwiebelkuchen ( Southwest German Onion Cake) image

This is a traditional late summer early fall snack, usually served with 'new wine'. It is not a sweet cake, but a nice hearty fall weather dish. I got this off a German website and translated it into English. This recipe is very good, and you will not be disappointed! Good for a potluck, or even a party snack.
