German Käsespätzle with Caramelized Onions and Cheese

1. 1

   In a bowl, mix flour, eggs, milk, salt, and nutmeg until smooth to create a spätzle batter.

2. 2

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Use a spätzle maker or colander to drop batter into the water.

3. 3

   Cook until spätzle float to the top, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

4. 4

   In a skillet, melt butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook until caramelized, about 15 minutes.

5. 5

   Layer half of the spätzle in a baking dish, sprinkle with half of the cheese, then add the remaining spätzle and cheese.

6. 6

   Top with caramelized onions and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10 minutes until cheese is melted.
