Caramelized Onion Appetizer
Decadent and Delicious, this Caramleized Onion Appetizer is rich and so unique. Enjoy with glasses of bubbly for a purely indulgent appetizer.
Ingredients
- french bread toasts (either bought or homemade, read the post above to see how to make them)
- 8 oz Cambozola Cheese
- 4 onions, thinly sliced
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
- In a dutch oven set over medium heat melt the butter. Add in the onion slices sprinkle with the salt and allow them to cook. Once the onions have let off most of their moisture turn the heat down to low and allow them to cook low and slow. This can take anywhere from one and half to two hours. You don't need to babysit them. Just stir every twenty to thirty minutes and walk away. You will know when they are done when they all get a deep caramel color and are sweet when you eat them. You can do this step up to a week in advance. Just put them in a container with a lid in the fridge. I gently heat them up in the microwave for about 30 seconds before topping the toasts with them.
- Heat up your french bread toasts, whether homemade or store bought, they need to be warmed in an oven for about 5-7 minutes.
- Spread an even layer of cheese onto the toasts then top with slightly warm onions.
- Serve on a pretty platter or cutting board.
- This appetizer can be served warm or at room temperature.
