Spread Half of the Crme Frache Mixture Over the Dough, Leaving a 1/2-Inch Border at the Edge. Scatter Half of the Onion Mixture and Half of the Bacon Over the Top. Slide the Parchment With the Tart Onto the Heated Baking Stone. Bake Until the Edges of the Tart Are Golden Brown and the Parchment Releases from the Tart Bottom, 5 to 7 Minutes. While the First Tart Bakes, Roll Out and Assemble the Second Tart on a Sheet of Parchment Paper Using the Remaining Dough and Topping. Cut the Baked Tarts Into About 6 Pieces, and Serve Immediately. |
