Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 large yellow onions
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 8 oz puff pastry one sheet
- 14 oz jar of fig jam
- 4 oz goat cheese
Instructions
- Melt butter in a small sauce pan (make sure you use one with a cover!) Add onions and stir to coat in the butter. Cook, covered for 30 - 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove onions from heat and set aside.
- Heat over to 425° and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto the sheet pan and use a pizza cutter to cut the sheet into 9 squares.
- Bake until golden brown, 10 - 12 minutes.
- Break open the puff squares to create two equal shells. Sprinkle some of the onions over each shell, spread the fig jam, and top with the goat cheese.
- Put back in the oven for 4 -6 minutes, or until cheese begins to brown.
