CARAMELIZED ONION, WALNUT AND GORGONZOLA TART image

Categories     Cheese     Onion     Appetizer     Bake     Vegetarian

Yield Makes 1 tart which yields about 6 to 8 appetizer s

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (1 pound) loaf frozen bread dough, thawed according to package directions
Juice and grated zest of 1 fresh lemon
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided usage
2 large onions, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, as desired
4 ounces crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
½ cup chopped walnuts
1 cup baby arugula leaves (or torn larger arugula leaves)
1 red pear, stemmed seeded and diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a medium baking sheet. Place thawed bread dough into a large mixing bowl; add lemon juice (reserve zest for later use) and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, working into the dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place while continuing with recipe. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy skillet placed over medium heat. Add the onions, blending well. Cook until golden, stirring occasionally, about 20 to 30 minutes. Season as desired with salt and pepper. Punch down dough; remove from bowl and place on prepared baking sheet. Starting at center, press out dough with greased hands to form an approximate 11 x 10-inch rectangle. With fingers or the handle of a wooden spoon, make "dimples" in dough every 3 inches. Remove onions from skillet with a slotted spoon and cover dough with onions, distributing evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with cheese and walnuts and return to the oven for about 10 to 15 minutes more, or until the bread is lightly browned. Toss together the reserved lemon zest, arugula and the diced pear. Reserve. Remove tart from oven; cut into squares and top with pear/arugula mixture. Serve right away.

Overall, I thought this tart was pretty good. It was easy to make and the flavors were nice, but I think it could have been better with a few tweaks.

This tart was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less salt in the crust.

I'm not a fan of caramelized onions, but I loved this tart. The walnuts and gorgonzola cheese were a great combination.

I'm not a huge fan of gorgonzola cheese, so I used a different type of cheese in this tart. It turned out great!

The tart was a bit too difficult to make. The instructions were not very clear and I had to guess at some parts.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar in the caramelized onions.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tart turned out great. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cheese. I think a sharp cheddar or a fontina would be a good choice.

This tart was a hit at my dinner party! The caramelized onions were perfectly sweet and savory, the walnuts added a nice crunch, and the gorgonzola cheese was wonderfully creamy and flavorful. The crust was also flaky and delicious.
