Categories     Vegetable     Appetizer

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

ONIONS:
2 cups thinly sliced yellow onion
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup water (optional)
REMAINING INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup (4 ounces) Gorgonzola cheese, at room temperature
24 (1-inch-thick) slices diagonally cut French bread baguette, toasted (about 12 ounces)
1/3 cup fig jam, heated a little bit in the microwave to soften it up
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • 1. Caramelize the onions: Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add onion, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cover and cook 5 minutes. Uncover and cook 20 minutes or until onion is deep golden brown, stirring occasionally. While onion cooks, add 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup at a time, to keep onion from sticking to pan. 3. Assemble the Crostini: Spread 1 teaspoon cheese over each baguette slice. Top each slice with about 1 teaspoon onion mixture and 1 teaspoon jam. Sprinkle evenly with thyme leaves.

I'm not a big fan of gorgonzola, but I loved it in this dish. It added a really nice sharpness that balanced out the sweetness of the fig jam.

These crostini are a great way to use up leftover fig jam. I always have a jar of fig jam in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

These crostini are a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a few slices of bread that I don't know what to do with, so I just make these crostini and they're always delicious.
