Ingredients

  • 200 gram puff pastry one sheet, thawed
  • 4 red onions or small yellow onions, sliced thick
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Fresh thyme optional

Instructions

  • Thaw puff pastry according to package instructions. 
  • Peel the onions into thick slices, approximately half an inch. 
  • In a pan over medium heat, disperse the onions evenly. Pour over boiling water until covered, and then leave to simmer for 20 minutes, until the water has evaporated.
  • Add the balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt. Allow the onions to caramelize slightly, until browned. Remove the pan from the heat. 
  • Preheat the oven to 400F. Prepare a pie or tart pan, approximately 8.5 x 10, with oil. 
  • Disperse the cooked onions in an even layer in the pan, then layer the puff pastry over top. Tuck the pastry around the onions.
  • Place in the oven for 30 minutes, until the pastry is browned. Carefully, once cooled slightly, use your oven mitts to flip the pastry upside down onto a serving platter or cutting board. Garnish with fresh thyme, if desired. Slice and enjoy immediately, or store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
