# Instructions:
01 -
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add thinly sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden brown and deeply caramelized, about 20 to 25 minutes. Deglaze pan with a splash of water if needed, and season with black pepper.
02 -
Preheat oven to 175°C. Arrange sourdough slices on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes until crisp and lightly browned.
03 -
Top each toasted sourdough slice generously with caramelized onions. Arrange brie cheese slices on top and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves.
04 -
Return assembled toasts to the oven for 5 minutes, or until brie just begins to melt.
05 -
Remove toasts from oven, drizzle with honey, and garnish with additional fresh thyme if desired. Serve immediately.
# Notes:
01 -
Slow caramelization of onions develops sweetness and depth of flavor.
02 -
Brie should be just softened, not fully melted, for the best texture.
