Ingredients :

2 cups chopped sweet onion
One half cup butter
2 eggs, separated
One half cup cream
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup dry white wine

Saute onions in the butter until tender and allow them to cool. Combine egg yolks, cream, salt and pepper and wine and stir into onion mixture. Beat egg white until fluffy and fold into onion mixture. Sprinkle baking mix on top and mix well. Pour batter into a lightly greased 9-inch pie plate and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
