Caramelized Onion & Goat Cheese Bites

Ingredients

2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

1 tbsp. unsalted butter

4 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar

1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves, plus more for serving

All-purpose flour, for surface

2 sheets frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-oz. package), thawed in refrigerator

1 large egg, beaten to blend

4 oz. goat cheese, crumbled

2 tsp. honey

Directions

Step 1 In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil and butter. Add onions, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until very onions are very caramelized, about 35 minutes. Stir in vinegar and thyme. Let cool to room temperature.

Step 2 Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 375°. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.

Step 3 On a lightly floured surface, cut each puff pastry sheet into 9 (3"-by-3") squares. Transfer squares to prepared sheets. Top each with about 1 tablespoon onions, leaving a 1/2" border on all sides. Brush exposed edges with egg. Divide goat cheese among squares. 

Step 4 Bake tarts, rotating sheets front to back halfway through, until puffed and golden brown, 25 to 28 minutes. Drizzle a little honey on each tart. Top with more thyme and pepper. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
