Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 16 crescent rolls

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons salted butter
2 small onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 8-ounce tubes refrigerated crescent roll dough, separated into 16 triangles
4 ounces Swiss cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Melt the butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and a deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the onions to a paper towel-lined plate and wipe the skillet clean.
  • On the wide end of each dough triangle, spoon a scant tablespoonful of caramelized onions and sprinkle with about 1 tablespoon Swiss cheese. Starting at the wide end, gently roll up the dough around the filling; place in the skillet. There will be some space between each roll, but the rolls will puff up and come together when baked.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the rolls are golden and puffy, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right onions. Yellow onions are the most common type of onion used for onion rolls, but you can also use white or red onions. Yellow onions have a mild flavor, while white onions have a sharper flavor and red onions have a slightly sweet flavor.
  • Slice the onions thinly. This will help them cook evenly and caramelize nicely.
  • Sauté the onions until they are soft and golden brown. This will bring out their sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of sharp cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese will give your onion rolls a rich and flavorful filling.
  • Don't overfill the rolls. Too much filling will make them difficult to close and they may burst open while baking.
  • Bake the rolls until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Onion rolls are a delicious and versatile appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply as a snack.
