Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality phyllo dough. Look for dough that is thin and pliable, with no tears or holes.
  • If you don't have a muffin tin, you can also bake the phyllo cups in a mini tart pan or even a regular baking sheet. Just be sure to grease the pan well so that the phyllo doesn't stick.
  • Be careful not to overcook the phyllo cups. They should be golden brown and crispy, but not burnt.
  • The caramelized onion filling can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This makes it a great option for a last-minute appetizer.
  • To make the hors d'oeuvres even more festive, you can garnish them with fresh herbs, such as chives or parsley.
