Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Phyllo Tarts

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. 2

   Melt butter and olive oil in a pan. Add sliced onions, cook over medium-low heat until softened, about 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Stir in brown sugar and balsamic vinegar; continue cooking until onions are deeply caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme.

4. 4

   Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough, brush lightly with melted butter or olive oil. Top with a second phyllo sheet and brush again.

5. 5

   Cut the phyllo stack into two equal rectangles. Place a spoonful of caramelized onions in the center of each rectangle.

6. 6

   Crumble goat cheese over the onions. Fold the phyllo edges inward to create a small tart, leaving the center exposed.

7. 7

   Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and crispy.
